    It seems like a way to help old fucks like me - who have never used anything but Windows and hate anything new and still bitch about the windows key - learn how to use Linux without throwing up our hands and going back to Windows 11. I am planning to use Mint, and Cinnamon, when I nuke my desktop’s Windows installation, because I’m just too goddamn tired to learn too many new things at a time and I liked Windows 98.

    Is Cinnamon still a good idea for me, even though it does not sound like a good idea for people still able to form new neuronal connections?

      Give it a try.

      You could also look into creating a Ventoy thumb drive so you can try multiple distros without installing them. Most linux distros can be run “live” straight from an ISO, and Ventoy lets you boot directly into any ISO you copy onto a thumb drive. It’s an quick, easy, no-commitment way to try a few things out and see what feels good to you.
