is that a good thing or a bad thing?
Well it takes like a thousand people to make Debian, so they'd need to do a lot of work.
hmmm... tough choice... i guess... I'll burn them all! No biases then
I'm actually thinking about switching from Debian to Mint. I'm thinking that if Mint is the recommended distro for people new to Linux, they will need a big community to answer questions in forums.
Absolutely. They will.
With the momentum that Mint already has, it has the highest chance of succeeding as the primary distro for Linux newbies in the coming years.
some long winded thoughts...
Like every PC Semi-enthusiast sufferer of Windows, when I was looking for a Linux distro to respite, I deliberated way too long on which distro to use. Finally I realized that the way I use Windows, I'll not be able to fully switch over to Linux anytime soon. So instead of burning midnight oil, one day i said fuck it, and installed Mint as a dual boot option. I spent quite a lot of time trying to make the Mint as close to my Windows setup as possible, but couldn't do fully. Plus the VKD3D performance penalty for Nvidia GPU in DX12 games meant I was never going to ditch Windows as my primary gaming OS.
I did the same thing, but with ubuntu. Now, you and I can troubleshoot issues and have patience. But someone who is sort of reluctant to begin with, it's a hard sell if there are hurdles.
