@LandedGentry You can partition a thumb drive and install just as if it was a hard drive. I create thumb drives this way mainly for restoration of a system is something gets broken to where it can’t boot, kernel corrupted, initramfs, etc.
Just posted the video, because I like that she’s quite balanced in her views. The subject matter will always trigger a level of controversy, esp. on lemmy. But the advice is pretty solid.
And if Mint isn’t the answer, go with Ubuntu. Or Zorin OS. Or PopOS. All of them are “right” and provide excellent beginner experiences for many people.
@original_reader Install on USB thumb drive and give a test drive, when you like, install on main media.
Not all distros play nice as live distros
