I really need to switch to Linux Mint. I'm going to start experimenting with it on my wife's old laptop.

    I would advise Opensuse Leap. I, personally don't use it but I have tried both.

    I've been told that Mint is easy to use, pretty much plug and play, especially for my non-gamer needs.

    Go for Linux Mint. Keep it simple starting out.

    Just jump into Arch blind, don’t even bother with the wiki.

    Haha, as long as you simply run arch-install as your first command, you will be fine.

    Linux Mint is still easier by default. But any user willing to even try installing Linux, especially Arch, likely has the time and intelligence to do some extra configurations after using arch-install.

    You have been advised with solid info. Stick with Mint, openSUSE isn't nearly as user friendly to newbies in comparison (not sure why that other user is suggesting it instead).

    Well I figured they were trolling me, given the specific wording they used, plus their call sign ends in @lemmy.ml. I'm aware that place is full of those who take it up the rump for Trump, so a grain of salt the size of the Moon was taken by me in regards to their advice.
