I am going to test fully when released, as I am likely to shift over to it.

With 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 there are differences from the 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 and of , and when that doesn't give me what I need I create personal/local backports so they're upgradable in future.

I still like and , so am happy with my 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.

@mp362 @sjosjo And yes, I’m excited about LMDE 6 as well. It may become my new main distro.
