      An update black screened his system and corrupted his time shift backups. So he gave Linux Mint a shot and has been using it for several weeks.

        Could very well happen on Mint as well. Should switch to atomic, if that’s his main concern.

          Mint is a good choice because it has an easy timeshift option, so a problem in an update is just a rollback/recover. Same as Snapper Rollback on distros like OpenSUSE, it means a non savvy Linux user can reboot and have it fixed. That is appealing for a lot of users that don’t want to bother with finding the fix

            Does ubuntu have this? Or does one need to install something to set this up
