First look: Linux Mint 21 beta, on a 10 year old Mac!

The Linux Mint 21 (Vanessa) beta has just been announced! In today's (unscripted) episode of Veronica Explains, let's try out the beta on a 2012 MacBook Pro! We'll customize Cinnamon a bit, install OBS from a Flatpak, and walk through what makes Linux Mint an excellent distro for Linux users of all skill levels. And with only a minimal amount of overheating issues! All music recorded by me, on Linux, of course!
