Fundamentally Mint doesn't have a security team so who knows and who is checking? They are talking here about a expensive build server for making chromium. Compare that with Ubuntu which has a full blown security team with salaries.

The resource difference here is massive.

Anyone looking for anything will be looking at Ubuntu rather than Mint. Mainly because it's the base for everything else and actually has commercial worth.

If you trust them, go ahead but I'm sticking with Ubuntu.
