  • Yeah I used it somewhat years ago which is why when I really made the switch I put it on my laptop. I actually still want to go to an image based distro but there is a bunch of stuff I sorta gotta get sorted and like all my zorin comments. so lazy. I mean im not but there is a lot of non laptop os things I got to do as well.



  • Its a good lazy out of box distro which is why I use it. I don’t have to tweak or install much to get work done once installed. Most additions I have made are for some nice quality of life or just a niche thing (sending text to a network port for a virtual machine. oh and the virtual machine software). I complained that they should use kde and finally installed it myself but again I don’t have to configure or add anything after installation to be using it for most things I do so I can hit the ground running. Again. Lazy.



  • zorin is more out of box and mint is lighter. so when you install zorin its going to put in libre office, disk burning, windows rpd, wine with play on linux, its a long list. So it comes down to out of box (I want a bunch of software I may use to be installed along with the os) or lighter and get what you want later. zorin is basically a lazier distro which is why I like it :) while some stuff may be a waste of space I just want it available right away or in a situation where im offline and did not think to install it previously for some reason (disk burning is a good example for this kind of thing)







  • Honestly if you can install windows on a machine and use it then you can install linux on a machine and use it. especially if its an out of the box distro (like my favorite zorin). when downloading something from the web you have to choose linux instead of windows and its usually .debian so its good for it to be a debian based distro. if someone else install the linux for the person then they just need the same skills they needed to run windows. mouse moves the same. login is same. doubleclick is the same. etc. etc.
