    If you want your apps to be up to date, use flatpak. Mint prioritizes stability over keeping up to date, so their system repos are often behind on features.

    Flatpak gives the best of both worlds, the tradeoff being much higher disk space usage and some apps not liking being sandboxed.

      That’s a side effect of being a debian distro. Debian prioritizes stability, but fuck is it stable. If you want something cutting edge use an arch based distro.

        Absolutely, but that’s why I love the Mint + Flatpak combo. All the stability of Debian without the outdatedness. Arch feels too unstable for my taste
