Sorry about the terrible webcam stutters - still getting to the bottom of it - was really random. 🙃
is that stuttering related to mint?
Still great content, IG. Don't worry. Not very noticeable to most people.
haha webcam go brrrr
i use MInt XFCE i had no stuttering with it...and my Potato is a museum with 2 GB Ram
@IffinitelyGalactic
Great video, I like the app you recommended at the end of the video wonderland but I have absolutely NO idea how to make them my wall paper. I've downloaded wallpapers I like and right click too set as wall paper but I kept getting an error. Do you have a link to a video that shows the process of installing wallpaper from wonderland?
This is one of the most informative "what-to-do after the install" videos I've seen, thank you!
One of the first things I do is enable the firewall...
Because your network doesn't already have one...
Explain 🎤
@@BGravesplease teach me the way, I want to migrate to Mint from W10, I am behind a CGNAT 5g connection, which a guy who has permission to the tower from the company shares. What would you do in such a situation?
@@11ELFs just dual boot if you game. Proton won't let you play everything...
Thanks❤❤ My wifi works correctly now on my laptop with the firewall on.
A year later and still very relevant! Thanks man, just installed this distro on an outdated MacBook Pro, works like a charm, glad you've mentioned TimeShift, will use that after the first installs of applications. Thumbs up! 👍🏼
Very useful video - thanks for the software recommendations. More such recommendations in future videos, would be greatly appreciated.
A staunch Windows user, I dabbled with Arch for a minute just to get a feel of Linux at its most basic form, but I Mint is so great and clean and nice, I've been using it more and more over Windows every day. I cant wait until Im fully converted.
i'm double booting and find myself in win 11 less and less, usually just shutting off services and regedits and gpedits to try to make it safe ..
Mint to me is like blue jeans and tee- shirt just great every day wear for getting stuff done.
Looks good enough and very practical.
I personally find Mint great for running my Property Maintenace business .
Mint to me is like a Toyota. Or a seemingly boring librarian type that you find really attractive once you hit a certain point in life.
I hate it. Upgraded from 18.1. Slowest pos I've ever experienced. Really disappointed.
@@JoeKubinec Cool. Hope you find a distro you do like.
Super duper helpful mate, I just installed mint and didn't knew that there was so much that I could do
Thanks
WOW! Thanks for a video that is full of very useful information.
im going to install mint now based on your video thank you was really great !
Best RUclips recommendation of the month. Thanks for the video
I found this video comfortably informative. Cheers.
I just switched to the Cinnamenu on your recommendations. Thanks for that suggestion. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. This was packed full of useful things.
Thanks for the video, some really good ideas and suggestions there.
The 'update gear cog is in Mint 20.3 as well, looking at it right now. Great Video.
Mr. Infinitely, you are great source of info, you are wonderful, Sir... ty
Thanks for sharing knowledge and making it easier for newcomers :)
I like your vibe man. I found your video looking for theme ideas in 20.3. I haven't moved to 21 yet because they don't have an edge release. Not sure if that matters or not. Good stuff!
I don't like windows so i scrubbed my ssd and installed the latest mint..I have no regrets and mint works great.Thanks for the tutorial.
They are doing gods work with improvement on timeshift...
Also on the gaming front I would recommend mangohud and gooverlay
I'd always recommend a GameCube with a Game Boy player. 😉 🤌
Soothing voice, fantastic content.
You are awesome❤
Good job on the video. Thanks!
Thank you bro very useful tips I love Linux mint easy and simple and gives very good gaming experience and performance ❤
Love timeshift...saved my bacon so many times when I was setting up my Mint 19.3
fantastic video, thank you so much
Thank you so much, very useful video you have here................
thanks i'm running 21 on a ol imac , i love itt thanks
Thanks for that video! Had to reinstall Linux because i messed something up but know i know how to snapshot. It's really amazing how my 10th gen i3 8gb Laptop performs now. It even runs indy games decently alongside not getting a seizure during boot.
just upgraded from 19.3 tricia,, scared to do it but did fresh install and backed up my docs on nas. my precious mint was always crashing. have used linux os for last 5 years. still a command line noob but thank god for linux mint forums! a bunch of tech nerds there and are humble af!
Great video. How do you setup wonderworld? I can download the wallpaper but it doesn't install as a wallpaper.
As a new linux user thanks for tutorial
Thank you so much!!!!
Subbed for the polite first 30 seconds.
linux mont 21 was the only one that handled my nvidia crd properly. My installed Pop! OS nvidia version decided unilaterly that it no longer wanted to provide correct resolution, after initially working, so it was not a hardware issue. Interesting take but not one I as a user could get behind. After removing Pop! and installing mint and choosing the nvidia driver in driver manager, it works like a charm. Lesson learned: choose what works, experimental is not the same as good.
When I was new on Mint, I happened to let Timeshift eat up all drive space and it resulted in a dead distro. Good that they sorted that one out. 👌
Me Too,i had to Clear all Hard Disk,it took 2 Entire Days,My Advice,never use Time Shift if you are a Begginer......i uninstalled Time Shift on my Mint Vanessa Today s Daily Driver,i save all my Stuff on Clouds.....
@@fabricio4794 Back up to a separate drive, and I am pretty sure you if you're an average user you can back up just a couple times a month retaining a couple a month.
I`m using the latest mint cinnamon and I love it It does everything i need to do and works great even got my NVIDIA 3060 working perfectly does 4 k no problem
I’m learning :D
Good video. Teal is a better green for mint. The first thing installed is Cinnamenu < Should be the deafult menu in mint imho.
I love Linux Mint and it has been my primary operating system for at least the past decade. Anyway, upgrading from within 20.3 to 21 I ran into an issue with my torrent program saying permission denied in regards to the files I had already downloaded on external hard drives. Also I noticed that copying files via USB (3) is now exceedingly slow. Not sure why that would be, everything was working fine before. I typically don't have any problems. But now I guess I'm going to just try and do a fresh install of 21 and see if the file transfer speed issue is fixed as I imagine my others will be as well. I hope I don't run into any other regrets. Something felt a little softer when using 21. Will be considering reinstalling 20.3.
Encounterred the same error with tor browser, did the fresh install worked?
ulauncher for the win!! I love that app.
Many thanks
Could you please tell how to enable the "Hibernate" option in Linux Mint? That would be of great help.
very usefull 👌
Hi InfinitelyGalactic, I used Ubuntu 22.04 for a while and the Wi-Fi didn't work for the first days but after installing some drivers like Broadcom it worked hard. I have an HP Pavilion Notebook Core i3 5th gen with 6GB RAM and it's 6yrs old. So in Linux Mint the Wi-Fi isn't working since it's based on Ubuntu is there any tip/solution you can suggest please?
Thank you muchly. My youtube wasnt working until i changed the kernel.
thank you bro
I dug out an old Lenovo laptop and followed your excellent video, it helped me through a scary proceedure.
So far I am really enjoying Linux Mint and it has given new life to my laptop which is 10 years old but now runs like a youngster.
Is there a way of adding Facebook, an app maybe?
Many thanks Cobber
You could probably add Facebook as a Web App, check just before the 10 minute mark of the video where he talks about it.
Very informative. Thank you.
new mint layout look so cool...how the keep inspired by windows environment but keep better and better....
Dude, never thought you were from STRAYA!! Anyways, I also choose AARNET lol because i'm based off of WestStrayaa
How do you enable the touch screen and bamboo pen on a surface pro? I'm trying to switch from windows and I'm not sure what to do.
My update to Mint 21 went OK, apart from Bluetooth now not working, though I had Blueman installed before and no problem with my Bluetooth previously. I gather this is a general problem with this update -- won't work with adapters. It's annoying. Any chance an upgrade will fix it?
Is flatpak when using dark theme the flatpak is not dark issue fixed?
Do you have something to preview images like in windows? I don't know how to activate or software to download for that...
Thanks. Can you recommend AV for Linux that prevents infections? I need it for a pensioner who clicks random links.
Hi. Very informative. Can add MINT with Vanessa Distro
Me like the update manager, and the software app.
Hi Blaine, how about showing how to migrate all your files from the Windows environment to the Linux environment. This might (?) be simple for those who know Linux but if you are new to Linux this isn’t a given.
Copy Windows files to an external drive or USB key and copy them back to Linux!
i Use the Google Free Cloud to Save My Files,no USB anymore,the OS of computer and where in the world its are,does not matters anymore....
All of my ms office files seem to convert to libre office and back again flawlessly 🤔
I just wish cinnamon would support Wayland for trackpad, fractional scaling and better multi monitor support. I really like it
hi i use on screen keyboard an i would like it to be the same as the one on login screen nice and dark.. transparent.. how do i achieve that?
Hello Galactic, I have 2 pcs around here with Linux for my use at home: my first pc has Intel Core2Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz - 4cores - 4 threads - 8MB L2 Cache / 4GB Ram DDR3 1066Mhz Dual Side Band / ASUSTeK P5G41T-M LX V2 / XFX Pine 1GB AMD Cedar Radeon HD 7350 Series - PCIe x16 slot - ati-radeon driver / SSD 60GB / with Linux Lite 6.2 LTS XFCE - Linux Lite 6.2 LTS -
base Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) / Kernel: 5.15.0-69 (this system is lighter than Mint 21 XFCE) ;
and
the second PC comes with Intel Pentium D 3.3Ghz - 1 core - 2 threads - 4MB L2 Cache / 4GB Ram DDR2 800Mhz / Board 9265BL7 of one Lenovo ThinKCentre A55 / nVidia G72 - GeForce 7300 GS 256MB - PCIe x16 slot - driver nouveau / HD Sata Seagate 160GB ST3160815AS / with Linux Mint 21.1 LTS Vera - XFCE 4.16.0 - base Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS ( Jammy Jellyfish ) / Kernel: 5.15.0-69 and it flows very well here.. Successor for YU !!
what program do u use for playing blue ray movies and dvds...
Is there a 2023 update out yet? Thanks for taking the time.
it took me nearly 30 minutes to download and update firefox on linux mint 21. Is there any way to fix this error? Thank you!
Pomodoro, thank you!!
thanks
A little feedback for you: I watched your video on how to Upgrade from Linux Mint 20.3 to Linux Mint 21. The process failed 3x using the "carefully designed" upgrade tool .... the process just stalled with no error messages or what the issue was. I finally got the upgrade to go and finish. Upon restarting to Mint 21, my monitor settings were WAY off! 200 % zoom and the wrong resolution selected. After I go that all straightened out, everything reverted back the the wrong settings after the first restart. To add to that, Nemo will not display Thumbnails for video files any more. The computer will not respond to my mouse after a while, and that requires a restart of Cinnamon ... that throws all of the display settings back into chaos again. I am running a very common machine: a Dell XPS Desktop .... I have to think that the development team for Vanessa did not "test drive" their end product before releasing it. I was having no issues with Mint 20.3. Very disappointing.
Unty mix it’s safe for use ? Thank you
Thanks for the review, mint has been my daily driver for years. Unfortunately I don't agree with Flatpaks as they are huge compared to native debs, flatpaks also don't update very well with them leaving various updates behind therefore bloating your system to the point of literally choking at boot if run out of space. They need to address this issue with a simple GUI to clean up and remove cached updates in both flatpak and apt. Will be waiting for the easy upgrade option from 20.3 to 21. Keep up the great work.
i have a Short Hard Disk with 250 GB,no im not a Hobo,im not from Africa,But im a Computer Recycler from Brasil,so my Mint XFCE i nstall Snaps and Flatpaks(not a lot,but the important,as my Browser for example)and i have no Problem with Storage.
@@fabricio4794 Lucky you, your President just made some very important points and glad he's based and not woke like the rest of the western world. My country is a brilliant example of what happens giving into diversity and the dream of a rainbow nation, it's now a 3rd world cr*phole in less than 30 years of black rule.There's only one program I run from Flatpak being Shortwave which I really enjoy but at over 1Gb in size and after various updates over the years my Flatpaks are now sitting at close to 10Gb and that is only with Shortwave installed over a period of 5 years. Now I've learnt to manually go and clean up all the cruft but it shouldn't be like that. I reckon a native deb package for this program could be well under 50MB if well coded. Flatpak would be great for some old no longer maintained programs like K9Copy for example. Would be interesting to see how well all your snaps and flatpaks play together after a few years of large updates on the same hardware and system.
@@peterpumpkineater301 All too much of what was Great Britain is now 3rd world. The 'led from the top' self-destruction is doing well, really tragic 😕
@@EelingStudios Time to wake your fellow brethren up and go back to when things were great!
I'm stuck between mint 21 and Kubuntu 22.04, Kubuntu is sleek but mint seems snappier and apps open up quicker and uses less memory
i have some issue with gaames and have no idea hot to fix it when i open up a game like minecraft it runs at 10-15 fps while on windows it ran at 90-100 fps
I have been using Linux for years now both Manjaro, Mint. In recent months however, First in Manjaro then in Mint v21 There has been a change in the kernel which has completely broken network connections to other machines, Linux, Windows and even my NAS. I was using hardwired mounts in the fstab file which worked very well. It stopped working a few months ago with Manjaro and now also in Mint 21. I have looked on many occasions for a solution to this and have seen a few different suggestions and none work. Samba has been broken for years and is not an option. So I have had to stay with Mint 20.3 as it works fine. It will be supported until 2025. So for anyone needing network connections to other shares, this is a problem. So, with all the reviews of Linux new distros no one is talking about the elephant in the room, broken network connections. To many users this problem makes Linux unuseable moving forward. Hopefully someone will figure out a reliable workaround and not 6 pages of edits to multiple config files. We need an app that allows you to find and auto mount your network shares that is useable for all users. I hate windows but... the networking works well.
Should we be wary with the kernel update? I am not sure if beginners like us should just blindly update kernel. Also is updating the mirror site safe? Like there's no chance we'll get malicious sources?
Thank you. How to have a window open to a larger size with cinnamon?
@InfinitelyGalactic which Distro is your daily driver?
my guess all this "Terminal Cats"use Arch,for me i dont Like Arch,and Manjaro,its looks like go back to Debian or Slackware,Big Linux is the Best Arch Base Distro......Open Suse for me is impossible Daily Driving that OS...Rolling Releases used to Break Dancin a lot.
I have installed the latest kernel with Mainline in Mint. But it doesn't boot up with the latest kernel. How to activate the latest kernel?
Hello I'm a newbie to Linux Mint. I'm desperately trying to activate the scroll function associated to the central wheel mouse button. But not only for one single application (Chrome or Firefox or whatever) but for all the apps, just like in windows. Please help me... There are probably thousands and thousands of people needing the same...
I was thinking about trying it but I don't like the idea of having automatic updates.
I can't seem to be able to use, sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches.. when trying to install systemd resolve.. I get, sudo: systemd-resolve: command not found.
Hi, I'm new to Linux. Build my own pc recently and have dual boot windows and linux. Now all software for my hardware is installed on windows. Do I need to do the same in Linux? Thanks.
Linux Mint fan and user here
I've never been able to figure out how to make ulauncher do a file search.

Is Docky working out of the box in Mint 21?
how do i get wallpaper animated like wallpaper engine qui in linux?
Would you recommend Mint for new Linux users switching from Windows, or maybe Zorin?
Interesting vid Btw, subbed!
They are both great distros. Zorin looks better IMO, but Mint is a wise choice: it's very solid and mature at this point, you can't go wrong with mint.
Zorin sucks imo but its good for 32bit pcs due to its lite version having a 32bit option
Q4os
Zorin is Good,but Mint you can fell Safe while installing it ....XFCE is the Best Version,i never try LXQT but they say is and MATE are good Also....
@@omegadaboi Zorin is good for Potatos,the performance is good.
The more I learn about Linux the less I want to use the cool bleeding edge stuff.
I want simple, stable and secure
The very things I look for in a woman...
debian stable fits all those criteria!
Why is my Steam app running at about 30 fps? this is the second distro of Linux I have tried same issue. Also I'm only able to launch steam once, if I restart my system and launch steam nothing happens even launching thru the terminal
after trying mint( cinnemon)in virtualbox, it does'nt show wireless wifi option.
Holy fucking shit, I can’t believe I’ve bashed my head against the Windows wall for so long and overlooked Linux. This is what a desktop OS should be.
An even easier way to install steam: open a terminal and type: 'sudo apt install steam' then hit enter.
Maui shell and elementary os 7 videos will be cool
I have linux mint and i have one and only problem i can not watch movies because i get a message "No compatible source was found for this media" i am using Opera.

Is Linux mint compatible with most games that Windows is compatible with on steam?
