A review of Mageia 10 by Jesse from distrowatch. Seems like a fairly solid system overall.

Ah, good find. I guess technically Mint isn't totally FLOSS, but it does seem a bit odd for them to phrase it that way.

    But if that is the reason, then they should label most distros the same way. To give one example, Debian has bundled non-free firmware since Bookworm. It feels very odd for them to single out Mint like this, if that is in fact the reason.

    Either way, they need to clearly spell out why they accuse Mint of this

    Yes, especially when there is not a word of criticism about Ubuntu that had lots of controversies in the past. With Snap as the most recent and Amazon "integration" as the first I was aware of. That makes it sound more like a personal thing than objective assessment.
