Should I wait for 22.2 or just install 22.1? I think I’m going to go for the cinnamon desktop and install using a Rufus USB on my ~ 9 year old Dell XPS 13 9350.

I’ve been waiting a while as I thought the next version would be out by now, are there any resources for finding out how close the next version is?

Is it easy to upgrade between .x versions?

    It is fairly easy to upgrade between minor and even major versions of Linux Mint. I did it continuously from 17 to 20.3 on my Dell laptop.

    Also, the changes especially between minor versions tend to be fairly minor. Mint follows Ubuntu’s LTS strategy, they’ll support a version with security updates for 5 years. Don’t succumb to FOMO.
