    It is a fork, meaning its like ubuntu but with the bullshit that makes ubuntu bad removed. It is completly safe but if you wanna stay clear of any trace of ubuntu at all there is also a debian based version of mint

        LMDE and PopOS are my consistent recommendations to newcomers. If one doesn’t work, the other will.

          I would recommend only community maintained distros at this point… seing as how RH and Canonical went to the dark side for some things, I’d rather not recommend something maintaned by a company.
