What are the advantages of Mint then compared to pop os? In what terms does it run circles around pop?

My biggest point is that it works out of the box and that it feels more premium compared to Ubuntu. It also auto updates nowadays and they build special mechanisms to preserve your battery if used on a laptop. Soon they will come out with their own desktop. They specifically focus on people who develop. Just sounds like a good option for OP. Compared to more difficult installations.

Why is no-one recommending pop-os? Works fine for me in all aspects. They even provide hardware, but that's not needed, you can just use the OS.

You posted this 3 weeks ago. Did you make any progress?

They are making good progress but reading this I feel like the release date is not coming this summer.

Maybe, I'm thinking to simple about this, but aren't they listed in pop shop?

thanks, I enjoyed reading that history. I usually use it when something hangs on the desktop as you said. :)

Ctrl Alt f1 f2 etc. Why do these desktops/cli exist. What was their intended purpose and what do people use them for today? Is it just legacy of does it stll serve a purpose?

I believe it's just a gnome plugin. Look it up. :)

Opinions are always biased.
