Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu. Wouldn’t it be better to go for one of the distributions everything else is based on? Debian or Fedora?

That’s 90% of online shopping there. It’s hard to hear, but we as costumers are part of the problem. Stop buying so much shit online. Go to a brick and mortar shop. Touch it, feel it, try those pants.
Online shopping is a fucking waste and every day we have dozens of shipping companies coming to the city with their vans to drive through each street bringing small packages to every apartment. Polluting, blocking streets, increasing traffic. Just because we are too lazy to go to a shop and buy it in person.
We probably don’t even need it. And yes, I know there’s not a shop next to me that sells X or Y. Do you know why? Because we’ve been killing small brick and mortar shops for 20 years with our online shopping. We created this problem and we have to fix it. Fuck the “broken, wasteful system” and support your local shop.
Good to know, thanks. I’m fairly new to Linux and reading that this or that distro is based in Ubuntu always makes me wonder how much they share (and why they don’t base those distros on Debian, being the mother of Ubuntu)
