Thanks for the post, I wanted to try Debian on my main desktop, but alas, couldn’t make the wifi dongle work (I found the solution for Mint, so I eventually installed LM), however, I am still eyeing Debian for two things you’ve mentioned…the philosophy and the stability. As I use my comps to do work, I am not looking for a frequent distro-hopping (how different would using Libre Office would be on an Xth distro, right?), so stability is a main factor. That being said, I am also very satisfied with Mint itself.

So, the update. Yesterday I installed Linux Mint 21.2… I’ve spent about a good hour solving the problem with wifi, and I can report I found a solution. However, as my original plan was to install Debian (I have Mint 21.2 Cinammon on my laptop), well…long story short, I am in the middle of installing Debian right now. I expect a few issues, but it’s a challenge, so…let’s get ready to rumble!!! :) :)
