I’ve been using Mint for quite a while now on a spare machine and it’s the first linux strain that has me not giving up in frustration. I can definitely recommend.

Using Connect, it was the second app I tried during the time there were a lot of connection issues with Jerboa (the errors weren’t their fault, but they weren’t handled as gracefully as I would’ve liked at the time). No complaints really, so I’ve stuck with it.

The way you walk is apparently also unique per human so you might have to take up a limp or something similar.

There are plenty of people without issues using FireFox (like me). That being said, I’m sure there are those that have issues, so no downvotes from me. It is however better to not generalize like that.
