    Isn’t that what they mean by “beginner distro”? Something that just works?

      But it implies that if you use it, it means you’re not that knowledgeable. As if knowledgeable people need to recompile their kernel every day just because they can.

        Eh, I think knowledgeable people know better than to trust such implications. If you’re savvy enough you can do everything you want on any distro, but if you’re just getting into Linux there are some better, less challenging entry points and Mint is one of them.

          I can see that perspective, but I think the word ‘beginner’ still makes it sound like people want to paint Mint in a poor light. It sounds elitist ya know? Perhaps a better word for it is reliable.
