    This is the biggest and most complete software store I have ever seen in a Linux Distro. I am amazed. So easy, so many apps! Great.

    I've installed Linux Zorin OS 17 Core and Pro on 5 workstations so far. They all are considerably faster than they were under Windows 10. I was ready to retire and recycle the laptops/PCs, but decided on a couple of upgrades to the workstations to extend their lives for years. I really like the ability to scale the desktop to fit with the view the end user wants.

      Yup. With Linux, the lifetime of hardware significantly increases. This is great from an ecological point of view.

    “Life’s short buddy, you’ve got to live faster!” Thanks for somehow always making me smile or laugh out loud while watching your videos! I think I saw in my last software update in Zorin 16.3 that the upgrader tool is now available, can’t wait to try it out. Even though I’ve read that it isn’t necessary to backup the home directory for the upgrade, I’m going to err on the side of caution since this is the first instance of this feature I’ve ever experienced being available in a Linux distribution. Thanks again for turning me onto Zorin 5 months ago after using Linux Mint for 9 years, keep up the great content!

    Awesome video! Zorin will probably be my go-to when HDR is an out-of-the-box experience on Linux. There are only a handful of things keeping me on windows, but HDR support is the main thing holding me back from making the full switch. Once HDR is fleshed out, I'll be a full time Linux user!

    I'm currently using Zorin OS 17 on an older laptop (Core i3-2350M, 4 GB DDR3, 128GB SSD), and it runs smoothly. The visual effects occasionaly lag, given the older hardware, but the OS never freezes. The OS is very stable. I use it for university.

    could you make a video on how to make zorin 17 faster? i've looked on youtube and google and havent found anything that makes sense to a noob (me). Also, i'm running on acer aspire i5 5th generation with 8 gb ram. Zorin OS isnt buttery smooth as i expected. so either zorin os isnt the right os for my hardware or it needs to be configured so as to run faster or i need a more light weight distro like maybe antix? any recommendations?

      Hey man, checked out your videos. Very good content. Liked the presentation. It all depends on you if it's worth it. Money wise, it's just OK. Not that great. You have to have sponsors and stuff. I would recommend doing it while you have a full time job. I started this as I was passionate about Linux and today I reach a lot of people. For me, that makes it worth it. So if you're passionate about Linux and want to do it for passion, go ahead. If you want to do it for money, there's not a lot here.

Tor not working, flameshot not working, and many other applications I used before are not working like on Zorin 16.3 Pro. Possibly, the Wayland system is a problem. To back my happiness I back to my previous Zorin 16.3 Pro.

    Which leaves me in a pickle of using Windows 10 for the next 20 years or as long as I can hold out.

    So what you're telling me ... is that it's gnome with extensions installed, that some of us have been using for several years now, previously through compiz back in the day... it's just gnome... although I am a gnome user now, I will say KDE has been doing this stuff since early 2000's back when I was using it daily. What set's it apart from other distro though?

    I was using Zorin OS 16 and it was a top tier distro but unfortunately Zorin 17 has gone the ubuntu way and made everything a snap. Even the base DE is a snap. At first there was Snap Gnome with Flatpak Firefox, absolute trainwreck for my pc. Trying to watch any video was a pain and rewinding a video resulted in it freezing for a minute. Then, I wasn't able to install the Apt version of Firefox because Ubuntu and snap but managed to do it, but still my PC froze up every few minutes for no reason at all. Now I'm using KDE Plasma on Zorin and its working fine. It might be a case of potato PC but I don't know.
