From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I tried the beta and liked it. The only issue I ran into was that the MozillaVPN app wasn't working on debian.
I also had not seen much progress on the Debian version of the app from what I found. I could be wrong as that was my first dip into Debian.
Mullvad is available and I might switch to that at a later time when the motivation strikes me.
I prefer the idea of community driven projects though.
Mullvad works fine on both LMDE and stock mint fwiw
