Almost all the software you want is available and will work just fine on the Pinebook Pro, including XFCE or MATE. The only exception is Komodo Edit, which seems to be only available on x86. Most of the other software you may want also has a strong chance of being available too, assuming it's open source. The Linux ecosystem on ARM(64) is pretty healthy at this point. I'm not aware of Linux Mint builds for the Pinebook (Pro), but Debian, Ubuntu, and several others are available so I'm sure you could find something which would satisfy you. They all work the same as they do on x86, package manager and all.
Your USB external drives should work just fine too.
