I’m not saying that Mint is bad. But with Kubuntu or Fedora KDE you get more overall support, and KDE software is much more used, developed, tested and supported than Mint’s self-mantained things.
There is a much higher chance of KDE thriving in the next 10 years than Mint.
This is my opinion, of course. And based mostly on my subjective observations.
100% agree. Don’t get me wrong, zorin looks nice and I’ve considered trying it a couple times. But kubuntu is where it’s at. My brother is old school though, and has a Gentoo install he keeps going, but he gets the latest plasma, kubuntu is a major release behind.
There are options that get you latest, still on a Debian base, but it wasn’t as stable as kubuntu so I switched back.
Linux is the only thing that will really revive an old apple product, even if it runs macos pretty well still, you can’t get any of the apps to run because they’re no longer offered, and then if you can install an old one, it auto updates to a non-functional version. (This just happened to me)
I still can’t quit Windows entirely, visual studio is important to what I’m working on.
I’ll never understand how people recommend Zorin or Mint instead of the, much more Windows-like, and HUGELY supported Kubuntu or Fedora KDE.
KDE Plasma is the way to go.
Genuine question: Why not mint? Whats wrong with it and why is kubuntu much better?

I am just happy it‘s linux that people choose
