Linux Mint update caused a lot of issues (wifi stopped working. cinnomen keeps crashing and more). Tried fixing but nothing has worked so I’m reinstalling linux. Issue is, I got no clue what to go with. I’ve tried most popular distros at one point or another. Which distro has been doing cool stuff lately?

[edit] fixed wifi while waiting for responses LOL. iwlwifi was out of date and had to be manually updated :P (DE is still mega broken tho. Lots of crashes)

[Edit] just realised havent used tumbleweed before. gonna try that now

    That’s weird. Cinnamon is usually the most stable thing about my Mint install. Sure you’re on newest version? 6.0.4?

    If you want to stick with cinnamon, I would recommend ublue-cinnamon images. They are based on atomic fedora which is stable as fuck and can always be rolled back if an update causes trouble. And if something totally breaks, just do rpm-ostree reset and do the changes new, your home is unaffected
