minus-squareneon_nova@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up25·15 days agoI’m not to familiar with zorin, and I don’t see it recommended often. What’s the deal? Any criticisms of it? Especially for new users?
minus-squarebrokenwing@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·15 days agoTried it when I was starting out. But I may have read somewhere that it uses telemetry. So uninstalled later.
