Hey 👋 dear Linux Community,

I’m still kinda new to Linux (started using this year 😅) I already made it to my main OS, even if I still missing some things which I used on Windows, anyway. What I wanted to ask you guys, what recommendations do you have for Linux Mint (Cinnamon)? In terms of security, optimization, (a way to make the UI looking modern ;-;) and privacy? I would be very interested in what you do guys to optimize your Linux setup :) I’m pretty technical, so there is nothing which could overwhelm me (probaly).

Thx! 🤍

    @keydelk @linux Hm, ig I will stick to Cinnamon, I don’t want to run into issues, using another environment which got discontinued by Linux Mint a few years before for some reasons.

    Abt the browser and content blocking, is already done ;) Privacy and Security is one of the things I’m very good at, just wanted to know how to enchance the security of Linux Mint.

    Btw. I would recommend uBlock Origin instead of ADP is leightweighter, customizable, opensource, non-commercial and pretty well. Since ADP had some controversies in the past.
