ZorinOS is what Ubuntu should have been. I've been using it on one computer or another for a few years now and its great. Maybe even better than Linux Mint now.
ZorinOS is a solid option, both for beginners and for people that simply want things done. It was my first Linux Distro, eventually I am on Arch, and I am happy where I am, but Zorin to me is up there with Linux Mint in terms of usability and ease of access.
Wow! Back in the day I was switching between Mandrake KDE and RedHat Gnome (Before it became Fedora) trying to decide what to replace OS/2 Warp 4.5 with! Windows anything was never an option! I was glad to see the back of DOS and Windows 3.1 (With PC-Tools to make it usable!)
Started with Zorin three years ago because it was the first distro I saw that wasn't ugly. Tried a bunch of distros on Ventoy but see no reason to hop.
zorin os is an obscure wallpaper flip meme distro, luring beginners into it is dooming them to be left alone without any support. just install kubuntu instead, at least you will get something more up to date lol.
Zorin OS is awesome, How dare you put for Beginners as Title? advance users too. Been using zorin 16.2 still on it as we speak rock stable. going to upgrade to 17.2 Only thing about zorin is the price of pro $47.99 is way to high. considering this day and age as Linux is open source. I think $30 would be more far. as everythin you get in zorin you can do in Ubuntu or another.
They position it as a distribution for people switching themselves including claiming there is no learning curve. Besides we didn’t say just for beginners. -MT
Mandrake was actually the first because they did it in 1999 vs Lindows in 2001. However, neither of those survived as distros so Ubuntu was the first to do it while also being sustainable. In fact, just a couple years into Ubuntu, Linspire was rebased onto Ubuntu so sure Linspire as a brand started earlier and Lindows earlier than that but Lindows was sold to Microsoft for a cash out and Linspire became a derivative of Ubuntu so I don’t consider their impact greater than Ubuntu. Besides they weren’t the first ultimately either because of Mandrake - MT
That was just Ryan and myself trying to give the Team - little panic moments - Extreme Distro Hopping - hahaha 🤣

It really is a great option, and even for advanced users, it's a distro that just works.
I run Zorin with KDE Plasma back-porting Kubuntu for Ubuntu's latest KDE. Zorin framework supports it and totally flawless.
Plasma 6?

What might be the point to choose Zorin over Mint if you need the distro that "just works"?
Zorin OS is very nice, fast, and easy to use. Plus all my steam games work on it.
What is the best OS for total god level Linux experts and what does that look like?

Zorin offers support and even posted a job to hire someone for support recently - MT

Lindows/Linspire, not Ubuntu, first made Linux easy. Ubuntu built on Linspire.
