    Not saying you are wrong, but I made other experiences. Installed Mint 3 months ago and Firefox and also the GUI updater work like a charm.

      I think maybe it was when I started installing things other ways? Like there’s apt and snap and … one other thing I can’t remember. But not all the software I needed was available through the GUI.

      So it could be that’s related to the breakage. Or maybe not, but that was my experience. If it’s working well for others that makes me happy because I’d like to be able to recommend Mint to some of the less demanding users I know.

        I totally understand, “user-friendly” is a system that let’s people install things in different ways without breaking, the user should not have to care too much about it.
