Linux distributions have been shipping with secure boot support since 2012, so if that was the goal it had already failed over a decade ago.

The Linux Mint support forums keep telling people to try turning it off to fix problems, but I installed Mint just fine with it enabled on my 8 (at the time) year old hardware, before I'd even heard that there was such a thing.

Anyway, it's good to hear that I probably don't have anything to worry about.
