So I've decided to get a Framework 12 knowing that I wanna try a proper start into Linux. My Previous attempt with Kubuntu went rather Badly, tho more because of the Garbage Laptop I got new for it which broke apart at every seem. Its also been 5 years since then.

So I've decided to go with Linux Mint, the Cinnamon Flavour! Something about the UI, Software Package Tailor made for me and that Linux Mint supposedly is Community Supported on the FW12 made me choose it. As I await the Laptop, I've been reading into it and there seem a few worries?

A Forum Post around April detailed that Tablet mode just doesnt work on it, is that still true?

Then there is the Framework/Community Guide on how to Instal and set it up properly... with the most Horrible German Translation I've ever read (Can't seem to turn it off either)

There is also very few Posts on Folks experience with it on the FW12. Do any of you Run Linux Mint on the FW12? If so what it been like for you?
