I have no clue at all how to say this (native please help)

How would you say this?

I don't mind doing this as much as I (don't) mind doing that. (I don't mind doing X, but I mind doing X more than Y.) (Is that even possible?)

Thank you

If you want to specifically name them, then fill in [x] and [y]: I don't mind doing [x], but I'd prefer to do [y]. For instance: I don't mind doing the gardening, but I'd prefer to do the cooking. If you've already talked about them, or it's clear what you're referring to, then say: I don't mind doing this, but I'd prefer to do that.
