Did you ever do a major version update (i.e. one that’s based on a new Ubuntu LTS release than the one before)? AFAIK they still recommend that you do a fresh install every time the switch the Ubuntu base, which makes me hesitate to recommend it to newcomers - Debian and Ubuntu have always updated in place for me without major issues.
I did use Mint in like 2018, though, it was neat in general.
