Peppermint OS in problem - Going back to LinuxMint?

For the last couple of years, I have been using the Peppermint OS on mu home notebook. I was even able to use a very cheap game-pad by asking around in the Peppermint OS forums and who helped me in that Forum - the user name 'PCNetSpec', i.e. Mark Greaves - the main person behind the Peppermint OS project.

After his sad demise, the Peppermint OS does not seem to be holding on. The Forum was down, the last time I tried I could not even open the Forum page.

Now, I am also in a fix. Which distro to install when my current setup becomes obsolete? I am looking at LinuxMint, or maybe I will pick up an Independent distro this time? Lets see.
