Mint is Ubuntu minus everything that makes Ubuntu annoying. That's why I like it.
I considered to go back to Debian but... eh, I'm too old and impatient for that. Nowadays I mostly want things that work out of the box.
Do things not work out of the box on debian?
From what I remember*, there was always some rough corner. Such as the wi-fi, or the graphics card. Sure, Stable was rock solid, but you always needed something from Testing; and Testing in general was overall less stable than Ubuntu or Mint.
*This was years ago, so it might be inaccurate as of 2025.
All the good parts of Ubuntu have long since been integrated upstream. And Debian's release cycle has increased a lot so you're not stuck with old versions anymore.
