    They have a pro version with custom layouts, for ppl who want to not deal with customizing themselves I guess? Idk its fairly easy to use gnome extensions or kde to get the layouts they use, but I guess you get many preset decent looks in one de, not sure.

      if it is good I could see if being useful in an organization where you want to just give a bunch of different people a computer that is slightly different than their previous experiences and have it look good from jump, not cause a big headache. Customization is nice but the default should be very max functional/pleasant.

          It’s the go to for reviving old laptops at the thrift store I volunteer at. The people who come in to get laptops always seem to prefer Zorin over Mac and Windows once they get their hands on it. Mainly because it’s snappy on just about anything.

          Then again, is literally just Ubuntu with a gnome skin and KDE connect installed. They did a good job with the UI tweaks, but you don’t need Zorin to use them, just copy them over onto anything else
