LMDE didn’t install the DKMS modules on my kid’s PC, so the nVidia drivers never loaded after a new kernel got installed. I do enough tech support at work so we chucked Pop!_OS on the PC (and set it up with btrfs and timeshift-autosnap) instead. No more problems.

May not be a problem with mainline Mint, of course, but there are weirdos like me who prefer the Debian edition.

Don't be ashamed of using Debian!

Far from it, Debian is one of my favorites, though I run EndeavourOS on my main machine.

It’s Linux Mint Debian Edition that’s the oddball, but in a good way.
