 Yes.
 The *only* reason I run a headless raspios/Debian setup is because that is the most used and best known version for the Pi.
 Otherwise its Mint all the way. Its *good enough*...

   Mint IS "good enough" - indeed Pretty Damned Good.
   It will fit most needs very nicely.
   MX might be a tad better for some (this laptop is MX).
   Some of the tools they've gathered are very useful
   and the install is smart and No BS.
   For that matter the latest Fedora is "good enough"
   as well. Just don't use GNOME desktop  :-)
   OpenSUSE is also great - but I'm worried about how
   it uses the now IBM-owned sources.
   Many ways to go.
   For Pi5 nothing BUT Debian WORM. Even after a year,
   still no sure-shit Fedora for Pi5. CAN be made to
   boot, but .....
   I quit buying P5s. They're fucked up somehow,
   the boot logic seems just Really Bad. Bought
   a couple P4s recently - good enough for what
   Pi's are for and there are a bunch of distros
   that'll install clean on them.
