I'm still kinda new to Linux (started using this year 😅) I already made it to my main OS, even if I still missing some things which I used on Windows, anyway. What I wanted to ask you guys, what recommendations do you have for Linux Mint (Cinnamon)? In terms of security, optimization, (a way to make the UI looking modern ;-;) and privacy? I would be very interested in what you do guys to optimize your Linux setup :) I'm pretty technical, so there is nothing which could overwhelm me (probaly).
If you're still in the experimental phase, jumping between distress, I'm pretty partial to ElementaryOS - but haven't used it in a few years. It was the GOAT back in the early days, though, for a pretty and consistent UI.
