I use the cinnamon flavor of the Linux mint. The best thing about this distro OS is that it is based on Ubuntu and Debian. Linux mint is an open-source and lightweight OS. It is very easy to install and takes less installation time than windows. It has an easy-to-use interface and can easily be customized according to our needs. It is somewhat similar to Windows, making it easy to use for Windows users too.

It's an upgraded version of Ubuntu by the Linux Community. Compared to ubuntu, it contains more open-source applications and more multimedia codec support. But the real change as compared to ubuntu is the GUI change, which is quite similar to Windows 7/Vista themes. Its been released 16 years ago, yet updates are being done periodically by the community, which makes the OS catch up with modern technological advancements and support for new hardware enhancements as well. Talking about performance, Linux Mint provides better performance and an easy GUI experience as compared to Ubuntu. Its mainly used by beginners.
