…hey, I’m a newb to Linux but I tried Mint and don’t they have like two-three app managers plus they can install .deb files? Like, .deb and .rpm are basically Linux take on .exe installers.
Mint can install from the appstore, or a user can install .deb files (since it’s Debian based) they download from the web. It’s also compatible with Flatpak files or Appimage files.
It cannot use .rpm files. Those are only compatible with Fedora, openSUSE, Redhat, and a handful of others.
