It absolutely is, but I couldn't find an expanddong on Lemmy, whereas there is a sbubby

You can also use pv to see a nice progress bar:

pv path/to/awesome.iso > /dev/disk/usb-drive

Absolutely, I daily drive Mint and it's one of my favorite things about it!

And when I installed Chromium from the command line as a deb, it OVERWROTE my wish, and installed Chromium as a snap too.

This right here is my issue with Ubuntu. A huge part of Linux for me is that I am in control of my OS and machine. If I use apt to install a package, it's because I want the .deb version. I absolutely don't need my OS telling me "I know what you asked for, but I'm going to give you the snap version anyway".

I could see snaps being preferred over .debs in the Software app, sure (though they shouldn't be the only option). But replacing apps in a command line tool is garbage.

Even the Steam Deck isn't locked to their flavor, so I highly doubt a full pc would be.

Excellent point, but "would've", "could've", and "should've" sound like "would of", "could of", and "should of".

So the problem doesn't lie solely in enounciation.

I've installed Mint on a 6 recently. Setting up the boot settings was a minor hassle, but everything else was very smooth. Definitely recommend the linux-surface kernel.

Was it Arch, btw?

There goes the planet...

Agreed, but I am glad they at least have the option to set it up through WireGuard.
