    When I used Mint about 6 years ago, I sometimes got into trouble with Mint’s weird update system. They were also telling users to reinstall instead of updating when there’s a new LTS, which is kinda ridiculous IMO.

    I’m probably not the typical Mint user, though.

    They had a lot of missteps over the years (e.g. at one point, they shipped with Amazon ads in the OS). Currently it’s the way they’re pushing Snap (which is a lot like Flatpak, but proprietary and only really used by Canonical (because it’s proprietary)).

    Plus the whole “it’s for noobs” image.

    Coffee filter machines are also old and reliable, very traditional (where I live, at least; French presses are a newer trend compared to that) and very practical-minded (IMO it usually tastes like crap, but you can make a lot of it at once and it stays warm for a long time).
