    I think the whole works part is the most important part, Linux can be janky (and by that I mean obsolete information and deprecated or outdated packages are often recommended and there are a thousand different ways to do anything with only one of them actually working (don't have an aneurysm)) on the best of days, If something just works you can change what you want later.

    This is why I switched to Mint. It just works. It's broken less than vanilla Ubuntu did. So thats what I use.

    Yeah. Generally when I'm using a Linux PC to work on something, I don't want to be fixing the PC itself too. And we make an embedded Linux product at work, so it's not like I miss out on the fun, lol.

    I use Mint everywhere. It works great. Being easier for newcomers to use and having an extra layer of polish does not restrict my use of the command line or scripting.
