Ehh, I've had a few problems with it, from the installation wizard crashing, to my wifi drivers disabling on system resume, to it completely freezing when I switch language input, to sometimes crashing when I load a web page. I'd try a different distro than risk the instability.
E: And before someone chimes in saying it's my laptop, I will say I had none of these problems using Windows, other than it was very slow.
I think sometimes there are hits and misses when installing a distro. Could not get Mint to boot after installing it so I ended up installing Debian - where Mint should be easier to get going, Debian installed perfectly fine for me.
Oh, definitely! I got my eyes on PopOS but I have a feeling I'll need an afternoon to do it
