1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    I don't think a single person has ever used zorin os

    [–] NosferatuZodd@lemmy.world 15 points 7 months ago

    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.

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

    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

    [–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

    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.
