I don&#x27;t think I&#x27;ve ever used Mint, or if I did it was brief. I&#x27;ve used Netrunner which was really nice, but ultimately fell in love with openSUSE. I may someday give Mint a try though. This is interesting news but the article is confusing to me at first glance as to what Mint is actually doing. Cinnamon isn&#x27;t really for me though. I loved Gnome 2 because it was highly customizable but now that it&#x27;s gone my only alternative is KDE or XFCE but XFCE feels like it&#x27;s missing something everytime I use it.
