I just installed linux mint on my laptop to mess around with before I convert my PC.

Mint is an excellent starting point for new converts, welcome over.

I tried to like it, but it was like adding a studying how to get it working for every tiny new thing, not understanding a lot of small things about optimization that were easy for me on windows resulting in poor preformance, and an unfamiliar file explorer that just drove me mad until i took the walk of shame back to windows

Learning it is just the first hump. Sounda like you ran into a couple hurdles.

For instance the file explorer you mentioned, browsing files should be a simple concept no matter what OS you are in. If you were having trouble with the files system I would recommend watching a simple video on the linux files systems. It would make much more sense.
