My mom loves Zorin OS! We’re strongly considering the pro version now.
Let me ask you a question: What does the pro version of Zorin get you?
Looks like it comes with more preinstalled applications and a custom themed gnome desktop. As far as I can find the extra preinstalled applications are available in the default ubuntu repos.
“custom themed Gnome” is enough to scare me off. Theming is one of the many GUI fundamentals that the Martian cock smokers over at Gnome hate with every fiber of their alien ganglia.
Tumbleweed with KDE is honestly the smoothest work environment Ive had since Windows 7.
Kubuntu is another great option.
For beginners? Totally; but snap gets annoying over time.
Well, it’s been doing great for my first foray into Linux so far. What are the limits of snap that end up being annoying?
It will take some serious, I hate to say it, YouTube campaigning and such to make Linux a more mainstream thought in the public’s brain.
What it takes is people being able to buy a Linux machine at the local electronics store. Installing your OS yourself is still a major hurdle for most people.
