That was an interesting choice of words "inside"
I thought DEs were around the WM. This is, you run a WM in a DE.

Hahaha, we can always hope.
The reason why Maduro is in power is the US. Plain and simple.
Hadn't the US propped puppet right wing governments in Venezuela, there wouldn't have been a need for a Chavez mesias.
The US doesn't care about drugs. They care about Venezuelan oil and continue tal hegemony. That's it.
So, it's not only Trump. It's every single government before him.
Show of hands: who expected high ethical standards by Nestle's CEOs?
When OP says "layout" I think he means the old as windows 3.1 layout and workflow. It was good in the 90's. Now it feels cumbersome and dated.
Don't get me wrong. I know that's the main selling point of Mint: Familiarity and stability. I settled on it for 19 years after I got tired of distro hoping. I've contributed financially to it every month for years.
However, it's that cumbersome workflow which got me back into Gnome where I use only two extensions: transparent task bar and window autotile.
Gnome on a laptop flows naturally and out of the way.
Usually the problem is that new users go out of their way to fuck things up.
I don't see anything wrong with that. Most of us did that and that's how we learned. But really, all mainstream distros are good out of the box unless you have an unusual hardware configuration. Specially now with flatpaks, appimages and Snaps.
Of course if you want to tweak and twist KDE or install extensions on Gnome or PPAs from who know where on Ubuntu or overuse the AUR in arch you need to know what you are doing.
However, it's no different in Windows but for different reasons. The most common way to fuck windows up is to start installing software from non reputable sources. I think many of us have had to clean windows installations from friends and family when it becomes unusable.
You don't mention the specifics of your hardware and that's an important consideration.
I was a mint user for more than 10 years. It never crashed. It became my fail back when I moved to Fedora/Gnome. It's very crashed, but my laptop (ThinkPad X1 carbon) supports Fedora out of the box.
People keep saying "a DE you can customize..." While I love KDE, the amount of configuration available means that's it's easy to screw things up.
I suggest Gnome because it has a modern workflow and it's otherwise out of your way. Of course, you can install extensions. Just don't go crazy because extensions may not be as stable as the core.
The GNOME workflow becomes natural after a few minutes.
I'll need to try!
I have a finely tuned Xmonad/Xmobar but at some point I'll need to switch to Wayland. This looks promising as a replacement.
All those "experts" lecturing you and they don't even know about man in the middle attacks.
They don't know that there are active bots searching for HTTP addresses to inject risky code or redirect to malicious sites.
You providing some feedback which may help OP is seen as criticism.
Removing the word "windows" in the last frame and also "your dad installs it for your dumb mom" to "your parents install a server. Maybe your mom does it or your dad does it. Maybe you can also help!"
Teaching "children" that technical tasks are for dady to do is so cringe.
Those two little changes and it becomes a readable story.
Are you kidding me? They would have renamed all the "St" streets and neighborhoods and removed religious symbols from schools and other public buildings.
But I live in "Ville Marie", Mount royal has a prominent cross, streets have names like Saint Antoine. Near my house there is a public school with a huge religious statue.
Bill 21 is not pro laicity if the state. For that I'd be in favour. But anything Catholic is "tradition" so it gets a pass.
Yes, but they only sell in packages of 6. So, who needs 120 Megatrons? In the long run it's better to buy just what you need or you end up nuking cities you didn't want to nuke originally.
