What do I do, when my PC freezes?
Windows has ctrl+alt+del, does Linux Mint has something comparable? The only thing I know about is REISUB, but that borked my PC, so I am hesitant to use that again.
Are there any remaining alternatives to waiting and/or using the power button?
Edit: Thank you all for your insights and possible fixes. Crashes usually happened when I was running (cpu/ram?) heavy workload. Increasing swap space was not even on my radar, so I did that now. :) Hopefully Mint will run more stable now.
Some desktop environments will allow Ctrl Alt Backspace to restart the environment. It’s the Linux equivalent of killing Windows Explorer, and sometime just as sketchy.
