      encrypting /home is good if you have multiple users also eCryptfs is also thing for several years just like LUKS/dm-crypt

        /home encryption can be useful, but the fact that the installer does not offer FDE is laughable.

        Also don’t use ecryptfs, it sucks.

          yeah, i love mint but have felt like its installer is severley lacking for a long time when it come to maore advance d stuff liek FDE, BTRFS, alternate bootloaders like suystemd-boot etc

          Also don’t use ecryptfs, it sucks.

          no clue there. i use luks on feodora and seem liek it works pretyy good.

            Luks is fantastic. Ecryptfs not so much.
