Today I learned I used Flatpak to install Gnome Builder on Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon on my laptop when I decided to put Linux back on it ("history.log.11.gz" says the earliest apt install was July 17, 2018, for reference). "term.log.11.gz" has stuff from April 29, 2019.
I am going to install Arch Linux on it because I'm bored and want a newer Linux install on my laptop. Wasn't going to use Linux Mint anyway and I was doing a backup before wiping it and Windows.
Windows was installed after Linux because at the time I liked it better. I think part of it was the scaling worked better (back when it was only on Linux, I used KDE 4 on Mint 17 for reference).
Anymore I don't recommend Linux Mint because they uncritically welcomed pewdiepie.
@fun When he installed Linux (Linux Mint specifically), there was part of a Linux Mint blogpost that welcomed him to the community and even when told that he's not a good person due to his previous nazi stuff, they apparently were fine with him from what I heard.
As of 6:47 AM this morning (a little more than 2 hours after I posted the first post, and that was when I was waiting for backups to complete), I got into Plasma and saw the welcome screen. Decided to use the "wiki instructions method" because I wanted to. Still need to put my BTRFS partitions on subvolumes for snapshots but I got the Grub menu to show up on every reboot first by turning on CSM (for some reason the UEFI logo splash isn't showing up now but Grub has a UEFI option).
