Linux Mint

About Linux Mint
Linux Mint is an operating system, which enables businesses to run a variety of free and open-source applications. It provides long-term support (LTS) releases, which lets users maintain a stable release of computer software for longer durations than the standard edition.
The Linux distribution system allows software developers to share source codes with other users and close networking ports using a firewall system. Linux Mint helps administrators detect other operating systems and create a boot menu to streamline system booting processes. Professionals can use the package manager to download additional software by adding a source to the source file in the system directory.
Linux Mint offers a variety of pre-installed applications such as LibreOffice, Pidgin, Thunderbird, Firefox, HexChat, VLC media player, Transmission, and more. The platform is available in the form of an ISO file, enabling users to make a bootable DVD or USB stick.

Great for rookies
Reviewed on 2024/10/28
Pros
Great for rookies to Linux, you just slap it onto a thumb drive and you can easily boot into it, installation is just a simple double click of an icon on the dashboard and maybe a little bit of meddling if you want to dual boot
Cons
It can be a little too user-friendly, so it's not best used for individuals who are far more experienced with Linux
