do not buy a oneplus phone



So I tried regular rear end Ubuntu but I kept getting "something went wrong" whenever I started the computer. I also lost the wifi connection widget and nothing I did seemed to get it back.

I tried Ubuntu MATE but I hated the UI and the lack of an easy search like I had with regular rear end Ubuntu (hit the windows key and search) made getting around way slower and clunkier.

Now I'm on Linux Mint 17 and so far no error messages and the search function works as good or better than Ubuntu. I even setup Steam to be able to stream games from my desktop and installed the drivers for my video card to it runs way better. So far I've been really happy with Mint. Is there something I'm missing here that Mint has busted from other versions of Linux that will come back to bite me? The OP said Mint is kinda garbage but it's the best distro I've tried so far.
