That’s fair, it’s not exactly popping off the screen on looks. It was the underlying functionality and ease of use that sold it to me. Tried KDE plasma which was prettier but just changing sound output was so complicated. I have 2 speakers but it listed 8-10 different outputs I’m sure I technically do somehow but I just want a drop-down

As someone who has gone from windows to mint, what is wrong with it? So far I have 0 issues and can run all the games I want. What am I missing out on?

If you are starting from scratch then this should be really simple. Most of the change notes here are for those upgrading from 1 dB style to another and making sure you have a backup. I use jellyfin daily, it is my main entertainment source for the TV shows and movies I own. It is a fantastic tool that lets me watch my Media locally or anywhere in the world (external access takes some extra network configuration which uses domains and SSL certs, setting that up may take a day if you are unfamiliar with it.) if you have a lot of media it’s a great alternative to Plex which are making silly decisions and pushing you with ads.
