Between Mint and Pop_OS: recommendation for how to pick between them?

Coming from MacOS, haven't used Windows in a number of years.
If it would make a difference it's for a Lenovo Legion Slim 5 (Ryzen 7 7840HS; NVIDIA RTX 4060).
I want to dual boot, using the Windows side for gaming, for now, and Linux for other tasks.

I should follow the law of the internet and insist that you can't export edits and that's why Kobo sux and then someone can let us know if it can!

In all seriousness, I appreciate the input, thank you! I just don't enjoy reading on my ipad as much as I did on the Nook I had, back when. So the recent posts about e-readers has me considering getting one. But I also need the ability to highlight and jot notes when I read.

Can you do things like highlight text on a kobo? And can you then export with all the edits?

Also, can you the plug into a computer and transfer books over?

Docs and Sheets are my real challenges to give up

Add to this the social stakes, which are often unconscious. "I" might not think I care, but my neurobiology might

Okay so I'm not insane

I don't want a five or ten minute video communicating something I can read in thirty seconds.

To have an enlightened community you need enlightened members. Social media struggles to even have people read and heed simple posting rules.

Ignoring the former and only considering the latter, as others have mentioned, mods serve a janitorial function. If you anticipate a stable user population, you could implement terms for mods, so no one has the role for more than, say, a month. Like students in Japan who have to clean their own classrooms, having all members take a turn might help. You could have more than 1 mod at a time with a staggered start so that (a) they get experienced support and (b) accountability/prevention to prevent someone from taking over. Finally a 3rd role, someone who's only ability is to boot a mod if needed

Is there any other carrier in the U.S. that's any better? Verizon and ATT don't seem any better
