Linux Mint isn't perfect, but at least it's not constantly trying to steal my shit or force something on me that I don't want.

It got bad several years ago, which is when I permanently jumped ship to DDG. It's nowhere near as good as Google used to be, but on the other hand, it's also nowhere near as bad as Google is now.
