I can’t think of time where I needed anything more than Mint for a desktop. It’s been on at least one device in my house since 2010.

Not who you replied to, but I’ve been using DuckDuckGo for years knowing it’s limitations and would occasionally use Google if I needed more specific search results, however, these days Google Search is about the same as DDG and (even as a fan) I have to admit DDG was never and is not a spectacular search engine. Honestly, the thing that surprises me most is that when I get inadequate results from DDG and try Google, the results are basically the same. Not a great look for Google.

I’m a new Kate convert. I had some issue on my system where GTK apps would break under Nvidia, something to do with font rendering. I tried Kate and was like “cool it works” and then I discovered how amazing and lightweight it is. Great editor.
