Because of outdated packages and UI, same for Pop OS, at least before Cosmic

Packages on Ubuntu was why I had to move. I had issues daily and each time I looked it was actually fixed but not available in the distro. It was especially amnoying for development where I had to manually compile newer versions. Snap being forced while being outdated as well was also part of it.

Yes, but Plasma BigScreen is far from moving fast

It’s very stable, but outdated imo, especially its default desktop environnement. Kinda makes linux look like a weird old windows clone, while other desktops can be very modern and way prettier than Windows

I wish people stopped recommending Mint to Windows users
