Good to know, i havnt researched mint much, but im trying to find the most simple system so i can learn linux on a deep level. Basically the temple OS or Dos or windows XP of linux. Not simple as in UI but in file system and stuff. Debian lets me install KDE which i like so the UI side is fine. Its a bit trickier to understand overlay file systems and stuff.

Maybe half of the software I use is in the discover store. I for whatever reason end up using quite a bit of niche software. I have improved a good bit with installing from scripts and stuff. Sometimes i need to install stuff into the OS tree to get it to work and use propeitary binaries. Installing java, AI dev tools, certian versions of Python to get software to work or compile Its annoying, but im moving to debian which should help with many of these things if i can manage to get it installed.

Managing multiple versions of python and other dev tooling can be made simple with something like:

Java, AI dev tools, and Python, are all not linux-specific things what so ever.

You speak as someone who thinks you know more than you do. I suggest ACTUALLY getting back to basics, ACTUALLY learn the linux file system like its folder structure and how it treats everything like a file, ACTUALLY learn how most linux distros primarily use package managers and what those are, and ACTUALLY learn how all the tools you want to use exist as separate entities with their own designs and philosophies. Then maybe how all of the software components in Linux are chopped up and distributed might make more sense.

You are delusional.

If you want to learn about Linux on a deeper level Mint is probably not the best choice for it, since it aims at providing a Distros for non tech literate users. For this goal I would recommend Arch Linux, since the installation an maintaining teaches you quite a bit. Main Problem is, that Arch is sometimes quite unstable. If you like to suffer to learn you can also try out Gentoo or NixOS or crea[e your own Linux with Linux from scratch.

I would try arch one day except i have a job lol

It is Not that Bad. The installation isnt that hard, if you use a tutorial. In terms of maintaining its mostly a "hit or miss" scenario. I heard from people who had no issues at all and from people who ran into issues all of the time. I can say, that I did not have that much problems. In about 2 years of relative frequent use of arch I only bricked my system once, leading to my is being unfixable and me having to reinstall the whole OS. I ran into smaller problems of which, except for one, where I found a manual temporary workaround and couldn't bother to fix it completely, all could be fixed. I would not recommend to use it on a machine, where you can't risk eventually having to fix it for one or two days.
