    It’s an Ubuntu-derivative using Gnome, but with a large number of tweaks to make it very user friendly out of the box. They have a variety of pre-made layouts in a beautiful theme that can pretty well replicate Windows 7, 10, 11 and Mac layouts among others, as well as a clear option to include Nvidia drivers OOTB in install media, and a better WINE experience for example.

    It supports wayland just fine.

    In my view it has all the benefits of Mint without many of the drawbacks stemming from its custom DE.

    I personally don’t use it, preferring Gentoo or Fedora, but I think it is a very good choice for beginners or those people who only use a computer for web browsing and home office use.

        I would definitely recommend installing it in a VM or liveUSB and trying it out. It won me over, when I thought it would just be another themed distro.

          Do you know if their Desktop uses some special packages and if it can just be installed on other Distros? Not a Fan of Ubuntu haha

            Sorry not sure.

            I’m sure it could be replicated with a theme and Extensions, but this might take some time.
