Hmm... Time to go back to Debian. Too bad, I liked Mint.

Can't Mint just choose not to incorporate them? They did that with snaps

Snap was just one side thing. Coreutils is, well, core. Diverging on that is like diverging on systemd: if Mint does that, they may as well split from Ubuntu completely, as the dependency hell with Ubuntu packages will be completely unmanageable.

That makes sense, thank you (I'm slow)

If you enjoyed Mint, what about moving to LMDE?
