mint's cinnamon is a great starter DE, but once you get comfortable def try KDE Plasma for customization or XFCE if you want something lightweight that won't eat your ram lol
I went with mint’s look to start, then I’ll transition to something more conducive to my actual workflow as I relearn commands. Frankly, I’m just happy that I can find all of my relevant settings in one place again. As god intended.
