    I tried both as VMs and I find MX to be a tad fluid and MX tools are very helpful. It's best for someone who likes less CLI and more GUI. Both have beautiful XFCE de's. I can mod it to look almost like MacOS but I need a lightweight and powerful enough env.

    Actually- they are BOTH great for different reasons. AND I use them both- I have 4 distros on my computer now- and switch back and forth between them-- MX is 1, LMDE6 is 2, and Sparky is 3, and Spiral is 4..

    MX is better on my Acer AMD laptop. I have both MX and Mint installed but the Mint install was not easy. I had to install Mint 21.2 then upgrade the kernal then do a full upgrade to Mint 21.3. the Mint 21.3 live ISO will not even boot on my system. however the Mint Cinnamon 21.3 Edge live iso will boot. I also have LMDE 6 and there where no problems with the Debian edition.

      A man of culture I see. I recently resurrected an Acer Aspire One Cloudbook, but I had to use ArchCraft. The owner loves the aesthetic, but using Sway is still a bit challenging to her.

    I'd love to see a comparison of these 2 distros with Linux Lite included. All 3 use XFCE so it would be a really cool comparison.

    My very first distro was mint. I kept hopping and going back to mint. I learned Linux because of mint. That includes configuring my bash, terminal, conky using weird scripts from shady forums. Never even heard of mx, but boy when I did and found out that all these configurations could be done in a gui that already comes with the distro I was baffled. Also I just had to respect the verbose documentation for everything. EVERYTHING is explained in a perfect manner.
    Note: I'm still on mint tho, I just can't let go of all the work input into it that easily 😂 also, mint's cinnamon looks sexier.

    I had both systems on my MSI cyborg 12V laptop, but I just ended up using Linux Mint. For some reason whenever I closed the laptop the suspension mode made MX crash, and the Nvidia driver support works better on Mint. I used MX KDE and Linux Mint Cinnamon.

      If you’re using an AMD cpu it’s possible that the TLP already installed in MX Linux is the app causing the crash, in which case you’re better off uninstalling TLP and using maybe Power-Profiles-Daemon or Tuned with Tuned Switcher.

    I use Linux mint mate and never had any issue nor any crash. So far it is very fast and I customize the overall appearance cause I don't like the green look. I also install Appimage softwares when available.

    it's crazy to see how much faster MX Linux compared to Mint...the installation, doing the updates. What could be the factors that made Mint so slow / MX so fast? Both are Ubuntu based distros...

    hmmm comparing Mx Linux's flagship DE to Linux Mint's not flagship DE? Seems like not a fair comparison although I get they are both xfce this way but still would consider Mx to have a bias here. I think it should be "who does XFCE better?"

      ​@@casual_citizen I know that.... I'm just saying from the get go it wasn't a good comparison. Having no winner when one is at a (technically) disadvantage doesn't exactly mean the comparison is fair.
      It's like comparing Mx Linux KDE to KDE Neon. It wouldn't be a good comparison because it's a flagship vs a spin/flavor. That's why I said changing the question makes it a much better equivalency.
