    So I’m a total Linux noob are there issues with drivers? I have a laptop I would consider doing this on if I wasn’t worried about it breaking.

      You can get Mint on a “Live” USB flash drive, so you can boot it up and see if it handles all your hardware before you install anything.

        I solidly refuse to believe you’ve had no issues with WiFi drivers on a laptop. Otherwise, yeah it’s fine.

          I’ve used various Linux distress on a half dozen laptops over rhe last 10 years and I’ve never had Wi-Fi driver issues

            Every damn time I get a new laptop I lose hours to WiFi drivers, even then I’ll still occasionally and have no WiFi.
