Linux Mint 22 – subtle but desirable improvements to an already powerful operating system
Quoting: Linux Mint 22 - subtle but desirable improvements to an already powerful operating system - Real Linux User —
Linux Mint 22 is not a revolution, but an evolution. And, although not for everyone, for me that is a good thing. I don’t want my system to get a complete overhaul every time a new major release or point release of an Operating System is introduced. I like stability and reliability first, and of course, then some nice additional improvements are ok to enhance an already perfect user experience. And that is what the Mint team is bringing us with Linux Mint 22: a great long-term support foundation for our productive and leisure computing needs. Enjoy your new Linux Mint 22!

Mint 22, the Ubuntu Noble-based version, is here
Linux Mint always has codenames based on women's names, and Wilma puts The Reg FOSS desk in mind of nobody more than Mrs Flintstone herself. Wilma Flintstone is the most sensible and level-headed resident of 345 Cave Stone Road, the calmer one who often gets her rash and sometimes wildly exuberant husband out of trouble.
This is not entirely unlike the relationship between Linux Mint and its upstream distro Ubuntu. Ubuntu is Fred Flintstone: Full of great ideas, sometimes unconventional, and a risk-taker. Canonical has experimented with its own in-house desktops, display servers, and packaging formats; it tried versions for phones and tablets. Even now that it's middle-aged and slightly more settled, it remains controversial. It customizes the GNOME desktop, with its own colorful theme, as well as a dock and other additions, and has its own app store based on its own packaging format. These are all things that upset some people.
