32-bit support absent in version 20 (onwards?)
[edit]In December 2019, 19.3 "Tricia" was distributed in 32-bit versions. 20 "Ulyana" released a couple of months ago is only available in 64-bit. https://www.linuxmint.com/download_all.php Unlike some other Ubuntu based distros which have said that supporting 32-bit is no longer worth the effort for the limited number of users I haven't seen anything to this effect released by the Linux Mint team. Such a note here and a footnote to the table Linux_Mint_version_history would be good if any one finds a source to quote. Waerloeg (talk) 03:07, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Features section *might* have outdated information
[edit]Point:Iḿ gonna edit what i think could be outdated information
Literally just made a account like 10 mins ago and noticed on the features sections it says that mint comes with XChat but on the page it says Hexchat. ("Linux Mint comes bundled with a wide range of application software, including LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird, HexChat,").
I could be wrong as far as I know Linux mint cinnamon ubutuntu version doesnt use Hexchat (i have a newer version downloaded). I do have preinstalled the matrix app. Matrix is not even mentioned in the article about being preinstalled
I also think that pidgen is outdated. I don't have it installed on new verisions.
I asked some people on the linux mint discord and multiple of them are syaing they dont have it installed 15' Courier bag (talk) 00:14, 18 January 2026 (UTC)
- I'm going to remove the part about pidgen and hexchat. They don't appear in new versions included from what it seems. I might try to find a source that says when they stop including it later 15' Courier bag (talk) 00:23, 18 January 2026 (UTC)
