Is any live linux USB "amnesiac" like Tails?

Does tails offer any anti-forensic capabilities that a regular linux live boot doesn’t offer? Mint for example, booted off a USB,should run entirely in ram and then be wiped on shutdown, correct?

This previous discussion thread may be of use to you: Tails OS alternative for amnesia?

I can’t confidently debate feature for feature, but I do know that Puppy Linux is a fairly popular distro offering both a live session and a live session with persistence options.
