    cause its one of the very few distros that are not made for the terminal lover trans animeweeb crowd, but the everyday user. with a ui that doesnt force you to type all day. they were in the news on linux portals cause they do offer a premium pay2use version, and they are on mainstream tech site recommendations cause they do the dirty work and send out emails instead of ricing the shit out of a window panel and an inaccurate weather widget.

      Most modern distros have the same level of convenience as Zorin. I don’t know where you got this idea that Zorin is somehow special.

        For a lot of users, the fact that it has the windows theme is what makes it special. They don’t want to have to relearn where everything is.

        That being said, I set my mom up with Mint because I didn’t want to have to support Zorin.
