This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Just going to say, I do those things too, on Linux, and while I can't say I never have to mess with config files, it's not frequent. And, the computer acting like it's my computer rather than on loan from a megacorp is nice.
It's not all the way there yet but it's so very close and the bits that are still pain points aren't nearly as bad as the pain points of Windows.
As the other commenter said, you should give it a serious try. Mint is very smooth overall.
Appreciate it! Thank you!
