They’re asking about the “app store” you use, Mint uses Flatpack by default (I use Mint as well). When you open the App installer you can see on the screen that it uses Flatpack

I cna feel your pain, I was there 2 years ago :)

They’ll be Flatpack, not Snap with Mint

I don’t game anymore and tried switching a few times (dual booting) but decades of ingrained Windows made it hard (aka I’m lazy) and a lack of support for programs I did use, like Lightroom).

This time i just took the SSD out and used a fresh drive to install Mint (have sonce moved to LMDE) and fuck the programs that don’t want to supoort Linux.

Only difficulty is Darkroom in lieu of Lightroom, and only becase DR is so powerful . I’d been using Libre office and Firefox for years on Windows anyway (Netscape -->, IE --> Chrome --> FF)

I have been thinking about a Steam deck :). I had a WiiU but hardly used it and sold it during Covid so O am a lottke concerned I’ll not be bothered. For me tied days most games are I am 15 mins free, moght play a little Bloons on my phone :)
