Linux Mint 21.3 has been released
I just switched from Ubuntu, which I've been using for almost twenty years, to Mint 21.3 and I'm impressed. Not only does it seem to have solved my printing problems (at least with one day of use so far, but I've had zero failures compared to multiple failures per day with Ubuntu), it just seems snappier (or is that snapless?) and smoother overall. Just dumb little things like remembering my sound device settings after reboot and letting me know the printer was out of paper. Ubuntu just seems clunky by comparison now. Hopefully it isn't just the honeymoon phase.
14No it's not just a phase. Mint really is very good which is why it's very popular and widely regarded as the overall best distro whether beginner or advanced user.
The team really do make it their goal to have a user friendly, capable OS that helps you instead of hinders you.
I use Linux Mint Debian Edition because I'm done with Ubuntu but the Ubuntu based mint is still excellent compared to Ubuntu itself.

Mint widely regarded as the best distro for advanced users? I must have missed it.
Not trying to shit on it or anything, but I've never heard the sentiment.

You could probably install one from the package manager.
3diodon works exactly how I wanted it and no less. I've mapped Super+V to it as well and disabled the applet icon
1so far working well. only missing feature is the ability to pin something permanently, but not that important

Great news, I've been using Linux Mint (Cinnamon) since 2016 as my only operating system without any regrets. The newer versions of Cinnamon keep getting more and more stable too. I have virtually no hard crashes or freezes anymore.
