  • Thanks for sharing your experience! It sounds like Mint is mostly pretty manageable for a casual user, which is good news for me.

    I think a lot of Linux programs have moved to a distribution format called “flatpak” which I am not super familiar with, but I believe behaves the way you prefer (just download the app file and run it). Though fwiw, the command-line script installers are generally not actually doing much different from installers on Windows or Mac - they’re just not hidden behind a progress bar.
