People doing the 30 days linux Challenge are having several problems because of Mint's old packages and technology. Why people still recommend it when there is Fedora and Opensuse with KDE and Gnome?
Why? Because there's no distro which just works! You want HDR? Instead distro X. You want to play games? Install distro Y. You want your high DPI monitor to work properly? Install Z. What the fuck is this shit?
