The former is similar to Windows on the desktop interface, while the latter, such as Mac OS XJ Mint, is easier to find applications than ubuntu.

Linux Mint and ubuntu are the two most popular system desktops in the Linux system, and there are many new features in each version of the media. Next, in the article, we will specifically introduce the difference between the two versions, which has a certain reference. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Linux Mint introduction

Linux Mint was released in 2006 and aims to provide a complete set of ready-to-use experiences, including browser plug-ins, codecs and other components. At the same time, it adds a set of custom desktops and various menus, some unique configuration tools, and a web-based software package installation interface. The purpose of it is to provide users with a free, comfortable and elegant desktop operating system.

Ubuntu introduction

Ubuntu is an open source GNU/Linux operating system based on desktop applications, which supports x86, x64, and ppc architectures. Its goal is to provide the average user with an up-to-date and fairly stable operating system built mainly from free software.

The difference between the two

Performance aspect

For new machines, there is not much difference between the two, but as they are used more and more, mint is used faster, while Ubuntu runs slower as the machine gets older, so mint performs better.

Upgradeability

Both Linux Mint and Ubuntu have easy-to-use updates. For Ubuntu, simply click the Dash icon in Dock and search for Software Updater.

The process of updating Mint is similar to that of Ubuntu, but operating systems and applications can be updated using Update Manager applications

Desktop interface and availability

Mint is very different from Ubuntu in appearance. The former looks more like Windows, while the latter is more familiar to Mac OS X users. Mint makes it easier to browse to find applications, while

The Dock function of Ubuntu is easier to use. Mint is easier for beginners to find by searching for something they need to find.

Compatible application

Both operating systems are pre-installed with many applications, such as Web browsers, music players, video players, image editors, etc.

But Ubuntu installs more applications, but it also adds to the trouble of finding applications. Mint covers all the basics, and because it's similar to Windows's start menu, it's easy to find these applications.

Conclusion: both Ubuntu and Linux Mint have their own advantages and disadvantages. When you have updated hardware and need to pay, you can choose Ubuntu. If you want to find a non-Windows alternative similar to XP, you can choose Mint.

This is the end of the comparison between mint and ubuntu in linux. I hope the above content can be of some reference value and can be put into practice. If you like this article, you might as well share it for more people to see.
