Other Debian-based distros with XFCE are going to be very similar, yes.

Xubuntu is going to install Snaps if you install some software through apt, though, which imo is kind of gross. That’s the reason I switched to Mint. But if you like Snaps, it’s arguably a better choice.

Debian might be slightly harder to set up. However, from what I hear, it’s easy enough for most people now.

If you’re already familiar with regular Mint, XFCE Edition is going to have the same key bindings, update manager and driver manager, so it should be slightly easier to use.

You could try Linux Mint XFCE edition. Comes with a more lightweight desktop environment.

It could happen, provided the cars are remotely piloted by a bunch of Indians.

Imma let you finish, but BeOS is the best microkernel operating system of all time! OF ALL TIME!!!

Agreed. I hope lawmakers step in and make EULAs like this unenforceable.

I just know how to use search engines and follow instructions written by people smarter than me.

99% of being a programmer is knowing what to Google, so you’re halfway there.

Linux is also interesting, but I like gaming without fiddling too much with my operating system, I just don’t want to commit my rare spare time to that. I want install -> play.

With Proton, running Windows games from Steam has become pretty much click-and-play. If you do all your gaming through Steam, most games just work.
