Comment Comment by andrepd Why are you comparing Elementary OS with a version of Linux Mint that's at least 5 years old? Especially when they had such a big design shift in the last year or two.Up-to-date screenshot (still with the "old" theme Mint-X, but actually Mint-Y (based on arc) is the default as of the latest version): https://linuxmint.com/pictures/screenshots/serena/gallery/5....The choice isn't between ugly and Elementary. It's a false dillema. E.g. Cinnamon, which is pretty and functional. parent andrepd 8 years ago
