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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This OS is not for gamers as it is lightweight, so it has some limitations regarding GUI. There are some issues in installation with some pcs, like mismatched kernel, some features not being available etc. We can't upgrade our system without taking backup as it fails sometimes.
