I have old history with Linux and am just coming back. I did my first test build for my office to get away from the dying Windows 10/avoiding 11. I went with a basic Linux Mint cinnamon build, got our network printer and core software working. Will you let me live?
Not to sound condescending, but I’d like to caution against this language. Mint is a perfectly fine OS to run permanently and never look back, and you absolutely can take a bigger bite while never having to install another OS. Distros are for the most part just a jumping off point and a set of defaults.

Yes, but you better be installing arch on your toaster by next week.
“Installing Linux on a Dead Badger” is an actual book. https://archive.org/details/installinglinuxo0000snyd/mode/1up
I went to install Arch and it did not seem easy. I opted for Cinnamon Mint.
Try Void it has an installer 😉.
Kidding, stick to Mint until you feel ready you can take a bigger bite. And do opt for the Debian Edition Mint.

I agree though, LMDE stronk
I said I was kidding 😉. If he likes Mint, sure, stick to whatever rocks your boat ☺️.
Meanwhile, OpenSUSE keeps rolling along, ignored
That’s because it’s not RHEL 😂.
I hope you mean LMDE mint
