It's Debian for people who like Mint, I guess. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] pmk@piefed.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 child) Iirc LMDE uses a btrfs naming scheme that is incompatible with Timeshift for example, and it removes some standard Mint features. The last time I tried LMDE is was basically Debian with cinnamon (and green theme), but what is the Mint experience? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] reseller_pledge609@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago* but what is the Mint experience? Mostly just the way Mint is set up out of the box and having most of the Mint tools available. I remember LMDE lacking some of the tools like the GPU driver installer last time I tried it, but I'm sure those are either being added over time or will be in the future. permalink fedilink source parent
