    You do know that you don’t have to change distros to change DE right?

      I absolutely loved the release of LMDE, it’s just what I like though, the simple intuitive interface of Mint, without dealing with Canonical’s bullshit (really sour about snaps, ignore me lol).

      Edit: picked back up my phone and reread what was on the screen when I realized you probably meant desktop environment and not Debian Edition when you typed DE.

      Yep. I was using Plasma on Mint for a while but the consensus was you’re best off using a DE officially supported by the distro.

      Never encountered any issues personally up to that point, but seemed to be the majority opinion when I researched it.

      But my most recent switch was from Endeavour, so made much more sense to install Debian 13 than to Install Mint and then immediately switch DE.
