Mint broke all the time for me last time i tried using it. After reinstalling it for like the 8th time, I just decided to take a break from Linux. This was like 6 years ago though.
All jokes aside. Anything you use these days is going to be pretty stable, have all of your driver’s (unless it’s absolutely the bleeding edge) and play steam games.
Hell Nvidia isn’t even an issue anymore.
But I’ll qualify that by saying I’m on a 47xx i5 and a 1060.
My wifi driver doesn’t work on it. I have to plug my phone in to use it as a tethered hotspot to get it to connect. And I tried what a lot of the guides said online. Nothing.
In fairness, I suck at Linux. Ubuntu and Linux Mint are relatively easier systems. No one I know has issues with Ubuntu fwiw
newer hardware still will have issues…

It’s a different world now.

I installed Mint on a USB to give it a go.
