minus-squareHexagonSun@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-22 hours agoYep. I was using Plasma on Mint for a while but the consensus was you’re best off using a DE officially supported by the distro. Never encountered any issues personally up to that point, but seemed to be the majority opinion when I researched it. But my most recent switch was from Endeavour, so made much more sense to install Debian 13 than to Install Mint and then immediately switch DE.
