11·1 month agoAll the nice bells and whistles that mint comes with: mostly cinnamon and the upgrade manager out-of-the-box. I’ve been using it for a few months, and I prefer it over stock debian and normal mint.

Ignoring the missing features, is stoat a better experience for non-techies coming from discord?
