This video compares Linux Mint and LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition). Both systems are developed by the same team and look almost identical, but they are built on different foundations. While Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu LTS, LMDE uses Debian Stable as its base. The goal of LMDE is to make Linux Mint less dependent on Ubuntu. We’ll explore how the two versions differ in terms of stability, freshness, performance, hardware support, and ease of use. It becomes clear that Linux Mint, thanks to its close connection with Ubuntu, offers regular updates, a large community, and better support for newer hardware. LMDE, on the other hand, stands out with a lightweight, stable, and resource-efficient system aimed at more experienced users. By the end, you’ll know which version suits you best: Linux Mint as a comfortable choice for beginners and switchers, or LMDE for those who prefer a stable and independent system. This video will help you decide which Linux distribution is right for you. ________________________________________________________ ► Follow FLJ on X ________________________________________________________ ► My other YT channel in German language @MichlFranken ________________________________________________________ ► General information As an Amazon affiliate, I earn qualifying sales.
