Honestly, I haven messed with any of this. I just installed Mint, made sure everything works and haven’t messed with it since. It’s a tool and nothing more. It is also the reason why I left Windows. They were trying to force too many features and ads on something that I didn’t want to be more than an operating system
The main customization has been that i added app snap store for the software that I couldn’t find in the default software store
A few hours, when you know what you’re doing. A few month when you have to figure it out, and maybe even then, it won’t work, or you’ll have lost a lot of money trying.
This should be a lot easier to do, than it is
