Do you feel Linux Mint is 'secure' enough for a daily driver computer? I've been using it for years but when I read the grapheneOS forums, I sometimes feel I need to make a switch as they generally bash it (and most linux distros) as quite insecure.
Yes is OK. For any "windowser" is a very easy transition and enough secure. A linux Mint OS is faaaar way more secure and clean than any windoze that people are using today.
For running a node I would use DebianOS, but for general usage, Mint is just fine.
as they generally bash it
There are a lot of crazy paranoia people.... and that is the main reason Linux is not broadly used. To be sincere... NOTHING is secure in internet world.
Do you want privacy and security? Stop using Internet.

Yeah, I loved how easy Mint was to transition to. I made the move years ago and there was almost no learning curve whatsoever. I've heard good things about Zorin as well in terms of ease of transition, but never tried it myself.
The folks over on the graphene forum did seem to like Fedora Workstation for day to day usage and security. I gave it a go for a few days but ended up back on Mint.
