Niri is awesome, but I cannot stand DMS with how often it completely changes the base setup and breaks my configs. The generated json dotfiles are also a mess, impossible to work with outside of their GUI. My friend tried it and switched to Noctalia, and he’s much happier. I’m probably just going back to Waybar or something simpler, but that’s just personal preference

I really wanted to like Mint, and with the wave of friends wanting to move I decided to try it on a spare drive.

Wayland is still experimental on Cinnamon, and had noticeable artifacts. Shipped Nvidia drivers are Nouveau, so I looked for documentation on how to install it, and was directed by the official pages to look for “Driver Manager” IIRC. It simply was not in the “start menu”, neither via search nor via manual navigation.

Hardly “just works” unfortunately. Had much more luck with recommending Bazzite, despite its own shortcomings.

But if Mint works for you and others, you won’t hear me complain.

We gotta get that bread somehow :/

This comment to me just settles that you absolutely don’t know the effort that goes into making pixel art look good.
