Mine freezes the display output to one monitor after awhile. (Intermittent, my favorite.) This was probably 6-9months ago. Usually apps kept working behind frozen display. Just with reduced utility.

Monitors are identical make/model 2K 165hz

I mean, fair. It also doesn’t have mint’s driver manger, which is a bummer.

Edit: it does have the driver manager! The hell with vanilla mint for sure then.

I’m an ubuntu hater / snap hater. I prefer my mint without junk in the trunk. I’ll confuse people though, I think systemd rocks. And let’s make more people mad, vim is a pointless flex and nano is better.

It’s also developed by glorious egg roll, the GE in GE-proton. I wanted to love it but Wayland + multi monitor + KDE + Nividia = pain

Mainline mint is a derivative of Ubuntu. Lmde is largely the same OS with a pure Debian heart without Ubuntu clogging the arteries

I could spin up a VM and check, I’m 99% sure you’re wrong. Also lmde includes almost the same preinstalled programs.

or…

apt install -y gparted

LMDE 7 and send it. Regular mint has Ubuntu nonsense baked in, lmde is basically the same end user experience and smooth Debian jazz underneath.

Like someone else said, steam, heroic.

I’d avoid any of the gamer distros.
