I'm still a windows user but planning to pick up some linux soon. Does support for base distros mean those built upon them are supported too? Example MintOS?
If you have the required package management software installed (apt for Debian/Ubuntu-based distros, for example) it works for any distro based on that software as far as I've tried. The Ubuntu version should work on Mint. That said, I haven't tried it too many times that way, so that's no absolute guarantee. It would be great to get a flatpak version so that it could be easily installed on most distros.
I can't try it buy 99% sure it will.
for the mint-curious
mint curates their own app manager/'store'... it caused quite the curfluffel, but i enjoy it because the crap in there is 'sanctioned' to work in mint...
i believe protonvpn has had a thing in there a year or more
Thanks, good to know. I guess their approach is more friendly to beginners who don't know too much about troubleshooting yet.
