I am going to test fully #lmde6 when released, as I am likely to shift over to it.
With #nemo I can use things like Time Modified instead of Data Modified, which is a right-adjusted column and still uses friendly naming for the last 7 days.
As I tend to always stay in Name order, with hidden only used when I want something I don't already know the name of, it's no big deal. I tend to work with the entry location so I can just type directly in there for say .config or .local rather than turning on hidden.
Personally, whilst I like #lmde there are differences from the #ubuntu base that will alienate some of Mint's user base. The big one is PPAs even though I think they create more problems than they solve. I like the #backports and #fasttrack of #debian, and when that doesn't give me what I need I create personal/local backports so they're upgradable in future.
I still like #xfce and #debian, so am happy with my #bookworm install of those which is rock solid for now.
@mp362 @sjosjo the apps that I use on a regular basis seem to be updated on Flathub first, and then…eventually…sometimes, to the distros repos.
Consequently, I’ve started using Flatpacks for most of my apps. Flatseal makes the majority of them respect my theming, and I don’t have to wait for a distro maintainer to get the new hotness.
