I do wonder why I remember it being a beige like room, or could it be that those are later levels?

Oh thank you! Believe me I'm searching for years now haha finally found it! 🙏 thanks my man, the screenshots alone are nostalgic 😂

Well, I used mint the longest due to its stability. So I jus t start to experiment with that. If it ain't broken (yet), don't fix it.

I keep looking for alternatives tho, maybe I should give Fedora a try in the near future?

Performance wise mint is pretty good, the only issue I currently have is Double Commander. It doesn't like to be opened in full screen. Otherwise everything else works great. I hope to use Wayland in the future though.

Well I can still switch to cinnemon if needed, but im currently using i3 exclusively. For work, browsing the web, making music and play games once in a while.

It works great in i3 so I'm liking it so far. If linux Mint 22.3/23 has full Wayland support I might replace it with an Wayland alternative.

I never used Tiling Window Managers before, I started to like them like 2/3 weeks ago. (using linux since 2 years now). I was experimenting with cortile but that wasn't a good solution due to several bugs/instabilities. I3 seams to be one of the easier ones to customize, so I ended up using that instead.
