have you tried mint

that's the stereotype a lot of people believe but it's just false imo

if your hardware is compatible, then it's as simple as any other os

I’ve been daily driving Debian and arch for over a decade lol.

Mint is very good. Seriously. If I had to daily drive Linux on the desktop, I’d use Mint. But even Mint is a far cry from a Mac in terms of usability and software compatibility.

I’d also have to go back to x86-64 to use Mint, and that’s a big step in the wrong direction. I’m sure that won’t always be the case, but at the moment, the ARM Linux situation is still quite fragmented.
