Clem talks about that in the comments. What are some no hassle, Debian based, rustless distros as alternative to Mint?
I wasn’t aware that the pist was hidden/remove by myself
Why is this a problem?
Its two fold for many (not for me): Rust and MIT
Well, what about just using Debian? It’s a bit hassle, maybe, but if you have prior Linux experience, you’ll be fine.

What hassle? Genuinely curious.
Well, for example, upgrading between releases is done by manually editing
sources.listand some other steps, and there’s no easy tool for that. This is not difficult, exactly, but for people with little experience it’s a bit daunting. Debian in general isn’t the most new user friendly distro, in my experience. Distros like Mint and Ubuntu make the Debian experience slightly easier. Not that Debian is some esoteric system.
The comment itself:
[…] Rust-coreutils does affect us. This is something we definitely see as part of the base so even though we would prefer for coreutils not to change, we’re hoping to align with Ubuntu on this. We’re concerned with regressions. New code almost always introduces regressions. That’s a lot of new code on very important components. I was shocked to see rust-coreutils updated from 0.7 to 0.8 just days before the stable release of Ubuntu 26.04. It actually broke something important on our side. We fixed it. I’m sure Ubuntu will update it whenever new regressions are found. We’ll see.
Have anybody here tried Tuxedo OS?Forget it, same Ubuntu base
