The latest Linux Mint update is an excellent Linux desktop for many reasons.
The Linux Mint community has once again released a top-tier Linux desktop: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia. I’ve used more Linux distributions than most people, and Mint is my favorite desktop distro.
My bias starts with Mint’s Ubuntu 22.04 Long Term Support (LTS) and Linux kernel 5.15 foundation. It’s a stable, reliable operating system for both new and experienced users. Since it’s also a Mint LTS, you can use it without any worries until April 2027.
Like all Linux desktop distros, Virginia isn’t just a desktop operating system, it includes all the software you need. The distro comes with LibreOffice 7.3.7 for office productivity, Thunderbird 115.16.0 for email and calendaring, GIMP 2.10.30 for graphics editing, and Firefox 121.0.1 for web browsing.
