This is a great article, but one nitpick. It says that people may want to use Windows if they have to use VSCode, but VSCode works great on Linux. Maybe it meant to put Visual Studio there instead?

Another small nitpick

Linux mint is great for beginners, but that issue you had might be related to your hardware.

So maybe instead of telling people to outright avoid it, maybe just put a warning.

Also, linux people these days don't like ubuntu for desktop because of shoving snaps to users face.

Because for me The simplicity and similarity of cinnamon was a great push into linux sphere when I was beginner
