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
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...
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.
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 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.
I use Zorin as my daily driver for almost 4 years now.
Ask me anything.
