Oof, memory issues are the worst. I haven’t tried Dolphin myself so I can’t offer much help there, but good luck finding a solution! I should give it a try sometime

Fair point, Mint doesn’t represent Linux as a whole. I finally settled on Mint cause I didn’t like the look of stock GNOME and… I forget why I decided against using Mint’s KDE. Choose Cinnamon cause I was tired after distro hopping a bunch and didn’t want to tinker anymore.

I’m sure you can customize GNOME to look like KDE/Cinnamon, but if it just breaks in the next update or two I’d rather not go through the trouble.

I think I read somewhere that Mint is getting wayland support soon though? It’ll be nice if that fixes the crashing bug.

Very specific - linux mint occasionally… crashes? Goes back to lock screen randomly, and closes all open programs. Very annoying to have happen when playing Beyond All Reason with 15 other people, causing the game to pause while I scramble to get back in (if possible). Haven’t looked into why too much, just went back to Windows to game. Mint for casual browsing and most else.

The closest thing I’ve seen is lbry, where some creators have mirrored their YouTube accounts. But it feels like a very small number of them uploading there.

E to add: As with all alternative platforms, it’s also home to a lot of content that was kicked off of more mainstream platforms for one reason or another.
