I see, do you know that you can change your desktop environment (generally on charge of the visuals) without changing distros?
It would be easier to install/uninstall DEs than spinning up a live USB. I would only change away from Mint if something didn’t install correctly, although I have found it very reliable in recent years.
Yeah, but it looks like exactly what I’m seeking might not exist. I tried xfce and MATE and thought Cinammon was better. I still don’t understand why Ubuntu played so much nicer with my trackpad but it might have to do with using Wayland instead of X11?
Could be something like that, trackpads can be a bit tricky unfortunately. It sounds like you’re in the spot of “I want things to work a certain way but I’m not up for the tinkering it would take to get it there”, which is reasonable. I’ve sucked up a lot of quirks that annoyed me when I didn’t feel like fixing them, but at the same time there’s true of windows as well (for me).

More like the tinkering I’ve tried has broken things :(
