For other tastes, there are other good distros too. Bad distros among
the well known IMO are only those, that don't have a community, such
as
e.g. Mint. Mint might be ok, but when those people run into issues,
they
ask at Debian and Ubuntu lists.

That reasoning is not too bad, but I think I can remember having seen
some Ubuntu users around here ;)
On the other hand, when I have a problem, if I am not able to solve it
myself ( It is quite rare, tbh, but it is only because I do not work as
an admin and so I can spend hours into fixing something or finding a
workaround... like how to purge NVIDIA*.run's files after a crash of an
installer - was is debian's one or the .run? Don't remember - which
could have taken less hours if I had asked here.), it often happen to be
solved on [ ubuntu | archlinux | gentoo ] forums/wiki, depending on the
problem ( Ubuntu's forum to find a software, archlinux and gentoo to
play even more with my system, it seem ), rarely on Debian's ones (
depending on the results ddg gave me ).
So, it would mean that Debian is badder than those 3 distros, which I
do not think. There is are quite active mailing lists, but, and this is
the stronger point imho, Debian allows more customizations more easily
than the 3 other distros I have mentioned ( again: my opinion, do not
start a war on those words ).
So, even if I never tried mint, it is probable that it is not a so bad
distro because maybe it meet it's users needs. It is a linux distro, and
given how small the linux community is, I do not think we should
restrain ourselves to a single subcommunity (even if I have only really
used Debian, ironically ;) I tried the 3 others I mentioned, but
disliked Ubuntu, had archlinux broken to install xorg, and never had a
damned working kernel with gentoo... I'll retry gentoo later, with more
knowledge.).
