I've been running Mint since 17.x and have only had one upgrade fail in all that time. You're very unlikely to have a problem, but backup your system just in case!

You got people like this guy and then you got me who had to reinstall mint 3 times because of upgrade and compatibility issues and then I eventually gave up on it 😭😭
And that happened in the span of one month too.

Eventually switched to Kubuntu and now I use Arch btw WITH BTRFS 🤤
