Is Mint better than Ubuntu?

Well, it is the fresher choice for your breath.

I prefer Cinnamon.

Define better.

Choosing a distro is very much a matter of personal preference, and will be affected by a number of factors, including .....

• Previous experience of User.
• Type of hardware that disto is to be run on.
• Type of activity that computer is to be used for.
• Availability of software for the chosen distro.

.... to name just a few.

What I'm saying, is that just because someone else prefers a particular disro, that does not mean that it's "better", or even that it will be "better" for you, since your needs may well be entirely different to theirs.

I prefer Cinnamon.

Ubuntu and Mint are like twins that don't look alike.

Ubuntu has it's fan base.

Mint has theirs.

At least Mint still supports 32 bit so it gets my vote.

I drink lipton loose tea.  Kool aid when it's hot.  I quit liqour when I found out it is a carcinogen.  About 20 years ago.  Wife still cooks with it though.

I quit soda pop decades ago.

I prefer lemonade.

SPAMMER!!

I like Mint Cinnamon...not everyone does and that's a good thing because we can choose.  

Oftentimes it is, as Mint tends to fix bugs Ubuntu causes.

Sure Mint has its own set of issues but I have always found it more stable.

Actually I'm a beginner i don't have idea about Mint and Ubuntu so please don't troll me 

It's rather obvious preferences vary.

If you're serious, post your computer specs and how you intend to use it.

Myself, I don't use either one.

Neither suits how I want to use my computer.

Of only the two, maybe Mint, but it's been over a decade ago when I tried the pair and things change.

I even use WIndows...off line of course

The Linux Mint is better for Windows operating system users, Mint looks more like Windows, while Ubuntu will be more familiar to macOS users.

Well, thank you for that stunningly insightful contribution. We'd never have guessed.....not in a million years.

Talk about stating the obvious.
