Why do you think that?
TLDR: No consistent use case
Premise: open source Is good also because permits forking the code, but is not all gold.
A lot of derivated-distros was made out of the main 4 (Debian, Slackware, Red Hat, Arch) some with a valid use case (Tails-privacy, Kali-pentesting) and some without (Hannah Montana Linux, ZorinOS and so on).
Linux Mint acquired popularity when Ubuntu decided to radically change its default graphical interface, proposing an Ubuntu clone + Cinnamon DE as default.
GNU/Linux permits to change the DE before and after the installation (it also exists an official Cinnamon version of Ubuntu) so Mint is useless, a copy of a copy, a waste of work.
I don't like suggesting good looking, poor maintained derivated distros.
As for a shitcoin it's (relatively) easy to fork but difficult to maintain.
So, don't do distro hopping, just do your customization.
