I made the switch to Linux (mint) at the start of the year, and I’m fairly happy but it’s not been without issues. I came across Zorin and it seems like the perfect OS to switch friends and family to coming from Windows.

I also like that they have a solid monetization strategy.

What’s your thoughts?

    With bazzite or really any distro you can run distrobox/distroshelf and just install whatever kind of package you want, for example I have an arch box where I run darktable because the flatpak kept giving me not responding prompts whenever I scrolled through my library too fast.

    also I had trouble getting opencl to run with my igpu on flatpak, but with distrobox I just installed the GPU drivers and everything ran right away, and darktable shows up like any other application in the menus

      you can run distrobox/distroshelf

      That’s comes with a whole slew of problems of its own.

      It’s great, but it’s too complicated for people who are not as technologically literate as us.
