It's really hard to use but it's free and it is lightweight meaning you can use it on old computers, and it is private and doesn't spy on you like mac and windows. (I do agree that windows is so much easier to use)
Mint f**ked up both my hdd while installing it. (I got it to work again yesterday)
it couldn't install the bootloader so it made me cancel it which made the drive not bootable so any OS i would try to install wouldn't be able to boot. until i tried Debian for some reason and it installed a bootloader which fixed the problem. (Sadly Debian wouldn't load so i got Zorin OS which i am using right now)
