I just installed Mint the other day. I was pussy footing around with trying to create a persistent USB drive but the bootloader was fighting me. I finally just hovered over the “wipe drive and install” button for a while before I finally clicked and let it rip. Never again M$.
I first tried Ubuntu then switched to pop os and haven’t looked back. Feels great to be free of MS.
