I think I would still recommend this distro today because imho it’s very usable if you’ve never used linux before and it is in my experience very stable and compatible
(although i use arch now btw, i would probably never recommend it as a beginner distro)
I switched to mint 2ish months ago and a friend of mine switched to fedora at the same time. Both new from windows, I have had no issues with mint but he has now switched to Debian cause he was having issues getting discord to work properly.
OOTB experience with mint is it works, it kinda feels like cheating having a distro that works easily without tinkering. Like I don’t feel like a real Linux user haha, but I would 100% recommend it.
The meme is very accurate imo, the text would definitely be “hello fellow linux users!” instead of youths haha!

Mint is great for older PCs. If you have a newish computer, there’s better options.
