I don't think a single person has ever used zorin os
It was the first distro I installed on my laptop and actually daily drived, it looks cool and the feels good to use
And since almost nobody around me uses linux it gives a very good image with how clean it looks
I have it installed on several old laptops/Chromebooks. It's cute, but it's not really performing how it bragged it would... Gonna have to find something leaner....
I recommend Cinnamon for an easy and lightweight desktop.
Never seriously... I only experimented with it in a VM. I know it's not against the GPL, but they way they rebrand existing things and then add licenses to them just feels scummy to me...
It runs my laser cutter for my business 3 years and still running on a dual core industral pc with no fans. Its pretty good
I mean, under the hood it's just Ubuntu. No one's questioning how reliable it is. It's just that everything that actually makes it Zorin is just a bunch of fancy skins. It was designed to be something you could load on your Grandma's PC and still have it look like Windows.
I use Zorin as my daily driver for almost 4 years now.
Ask me anything.
I work in a computer shop and we put Zorin on machines for some instances, like if it's a old/low performance machine or if the customer is trying to stick to a strict budget. We haven't had any come back, and people seem to like it.
