Hi gd_scandia,
I remember doing that. I never particularly liked Linux Mint, but I did a
bunch of small newbie friendly distros like Simply Mepis, LXLE, AntiX, etc.
on VMs whenever I got frustrated by all the trolls on the Trisquel boards my
first year or so in the community.
I guess it was good for blowing off steam, but not much else.
You get over it; there are more efficient ways to utilize your resources.
Looks like others have got your back as far as the reasons why that doesn't
work the same way they had mine.
Sort of makes goosebumps run up and down your spine, like the little green
sprouts that poke up through the cracks in the pavement, reaching for the
sun, still believing that life could turn out to be something beautiful.
But I digress.
