Happy Holidays to you as well. 😈 Paul, If you are enjoying Linux Mint, then there is no need to move onto anything else. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using Linux Mint if it is working for you. I used Mint for about 18 months back around Linux Mint 13. It's a great distro! I personally have jumped from a variety of distro's, mostly Fedora, Ubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, Mint, Antergos, and Arch. I have landed on Arch and have stuck with it since February this year and don't have any immediate plans to change my default. While I still enjoy spinning up a new version of a distro in a VM, and sometimes on hardware, I don't feel the need to do that except for exploration and education. Don't feel that you need to try something different, or "more challenging" like Gentoo/Slackware/Arch/etc unless your in it for the self education. If what you have is working for you, then stick with it! > Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2014 14:03:52 -0600 > From: mr.chew.baka at gmail.com > To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org > Subject: Re: [tclug-list] Manjero or Mint? > > On 12/30/2014 1:16 PM, paul g wrote: > > Bob, I appreciate your input but someone that is let's just say > > 'challenged' mentally such as myself could have bigger/broader problems > > with Slackware possibly.
