Interesting. Thanks for letting me know!

Activity is almost the same as virtual desktops.

I know this doesn't help but I think the file picker is by far the worst feature Linux has ever had. And our opinions are quite common among Linux users.

Does the greek keyboard layout offer a fast switch into latin letters? How does 'Linux' look like in greek letters?

Hopefully they at least have ssd and 8gb ram.

Check from psref of X200 is the sim card reader for 2G or 3G internet. Then check is it enabled in the bios.

I give you 3 options and you google them and choose the one which suits you the best. 1. Change the boot order in your bios (Mint drive first) 2. Install package 'os-prober' and then update-grub (Win10 will appear in Grub) 3. Install rEFInd to replace Grub and choose everytime which OS you want to boot (set timeout by yourself). Warning: theming the rEFInd is known to be addictive.

It isn't actually a file manager. It is called a "file picker" and has been a reason to rant as long as I can remember, so close to a decade.

What a strange post in many ways.

During the year with LMDE5 I haven't faced any issues with it. I tried Debian 11 for a week and even an usable Rust-package (up-to-date) was pain to install. I'm not sure, but I claim that Mint Team updates some packages into the repo by themselves.

LMDE also includes flatpaks so they're up-do-date anyway.

It's very nice if you don't have Nvidia gpu. LMDE6 might even offer better support for Nvidia since Debian 12 allowed non-free drivers.

I use LMDE5 and promise of it being faster/snappier than regular isn't over estimated: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=374128

Do you have plans to go with LMDE6 when it's released?
