I've tried a zillion desktop distros - it doesn't get any better than Linux Mint 22

Linux Mint's latest release continues its tradition of excellence. It's easy to learn and use, faster than Windows, and runs on a thrift-store PC. What more can you ask for?

Back in 2010, I had to search for applications, but I could easily install them without needing a Linux shell command such as apt, dnf, or yum. Cinnamon 6.2 introduces several enhancements, including improved screen lock delay options and a more flexible user applet. The distribution is powered by the Linux kernel 6.8, ensuring compatibility with modern hardware and providing a stable and secure environment that will receive updates until 2029.
