Also, if audio dubbing bothers you you can disable it for all videos in your browser language settings. But also you can disable it in this video by changing the audio track to "original".

Zorin OS is an excellent option for those who are new to Linux or anyone else who wants a simple, elegant, and stable experience. It is an ideal Windows 10 replacement!

Zorin OS is what Linux should be. Other distros should be taking notes. I've been using Linux since 2005 and its the best distro I've seen in that time.

As a beginner, I really appreciate how easy Zorin made the switch from windows on my old laptop. It saved me money too. And, after getting used to it, it's easier to use than windows. Four months later and I replaced Windows on my main PC and have been trying out CachyOS for gaming

[TheDesertBlizzard]

As a power user myself, I still prefer Zorin in most cases. I don't believe in the idea that there is a Linux for "new Linux users". Power users can pretty much do anything they want with Zorin, or any other distro for that matter, so a well assembled distro out of the box is what I look for.

We have Zorin Pro on a lot of work laptops and it‘s really solid and well thought-out

[quiettype]

I really enjoy using Zorin on one of my laptops, a Dell 17" touchscreen convertible; it's about 6 years old and I would say that it runs better on Zorin than it ever did on Windows, or on any other Linux distro I have tried on it. Not sure why, but I do know that I won't be using that machine as my distro hopper anymore.

[Technopath]

I've always liked Zorin, but the only thing that's made it difficult for me to recommend for people alongside Mint is they've been pretty painfully slow for updates. If that's changed, if they can keep it about on par with Mint in updates, then it'll very quickly become among my top two recommendations for new users.

Finaly.... For general use. So tired YouTuber say beginner distros about zorin mint etc. all of them are just good for everyday use and even for work.

[enyamin]

I have installes ubuntu and mint several times. this video is tempting me to install zorin os😅. I will install this for my second pc.

[humbletuxdotcom]

The time I spent using Zorin as a daily driver, demonstrated to me it was just as solid & reliable as Linux Mint. My only wish is, that Zorin would do "like" Mint, and release a version based on Debian (like Mint did with LMDE6).

[germanklenner]

Excellent video.
Zorin Os, Pro version, I have been using it regularly since version 15, both professionally and at home, with very good results.
Honestly, for what I do, it's enough for me.
I am surprised by the choice of Brave as a replacement for Firefox. To tell the truth, the community's reaction was a bit over the top. Firefox is in the dilemma of generating resources to be able to survive, without totally betraying its principles (something like trying to square the circle). However, I find it a bit hypocritical that we demand so much from it on the one hand, and don't support it financially on the other (how many of us donate regularly to the project?).
I was looking at a comparison chart between Brave and Firefox, and, truly, the former is much more invasive than the latter. Therefore, I will continue to use Firefox, (finally I have Librewolf as an alternative).
Greetings and success.

Excellent video about Zorin, it would also be interesting to make a video about another very good distro, Big Linux, thanks, your channel is very good!

[Payton-Silver]

Though customized greatly, this is still Gnome. So it is necessary to open "Software" settings and switch automatic updates off. (That is a kind of Micro$oft Wind0w$-like behaviour.) All in all, Zorin OS looks like the best Gnome distro ever.

[mircconpetko]

Dobar video, koristio sam zorin par puta ali sam se odlucio ipak(za sada Ubuntu), mozda probam 17.3 ko zna...
Pozdrav iz Beograda

Ja sam kupio PRO. Ne zato što ne bih znao "upgradeati" free verziju nego zato da ih podržim.

[siribraheem]

how about the battary usage on zorin os

[Penguinek]

The first thing I saw was probably Brave as the default browser. I don't usually follow Zorin OS news because I'm on Linux Mint.

[JL_BA]

The A and Q keys don't work on my laptop. With Windows 10 I used PowerToys to remap and reassign, but I can't find a way to do the same on Zorinos.If anyone knows the solution, I would appreciate it.

[AntonPuellulla]

Would have been better to offer at first boot a list of browsers, I don't know, Vivaldi, Librewolf and whathaveyou. I think FerenOS does that. Not everybody wants to see Brave as default (same as FF ofc).
