You can install Synaptic in Debian. Problem solved? I love the terminal so this isn't really my fight but you could spend some time to make Debian GUI-based if you wanted to.

Also LMDE exists, which Mint-ifies Debian and gives you a GUI option for basically everything you can imagine.

Pretty sure KDE's Discover store hooks into Debian's repos just fine too

Multiple reasons why this is not a good option.

  • no fwupd
  • no flatpak
  • still requires sudo
  • mint uses XOrg and is very limited
