Therefore, if you're using either Mint or Ubuntu, you are actually using Debian to an extent. Mint, is, in fact, based upon Ubuntu and Ubuntu has Debian at its core. It solely relies on its own keen community of users and developers to maintain the project which often leads to more experimental updates that are sometimes buggier and timed less rigidly than Ubuntu’s bi-annnual schedule. Unlike Ubuntu, it isn’t managed professionally. Mint is generally considered to be a more traditional Linux distro compared to Ubuntu, with its somewhat antiquated aesthetic which resembles an amalgam of Windows 7, XP and a few other earlier Windows installations. Per the Ubuntu project’s manifesto, Ubuntu will always be free to use, accessible in as many languages as possible, shipped with a refreshed version every six months, and uphold open source development principles. It features a familiar, macOS-like user interface (UI) and is maintained by both its keen community of users and professionally by Canonical - sponsor of the Ubuntu project. Generally speaking, Ubuntu is the more popular choice over Mint.
