How much storage is it using?


Absolutely. I may give it a go because it looks interesting. I need to learn more about it before I install it.


I tried three. My point is that people are talking more about Linux as a viable desktop. I despise windows as much as the next person and I really want people to move to Linux.
Many people stick with windows because of gaming but gaming on Linux has to be consistently at least as good and easy as windows. It’s all well and good saying “edit this file, select the right runtime”, but that’s not good enough IMHO.
Installing steam was either download the DEB file (and then run a shell command) or run a bunch of shell commands to add a key and a repo and to install the program. That’s not an attractive picture for non technical users.


I installed Steam on Debian 13 and it wouldn’t run from the desktop shortcut. I had to edit the config for it to start. I installed and tried two games at random and neither worked. So I uninstalled it. Even completely removing Steam needed several shell commands. I’ve been using Linux on and off since its early days so this was very disappointing.


Revenue and data.

Why do people create websites with grey and bright green on black. I find it so hard to read.
Awesome thanks. I don’t think it’s Focal. It was a computer my friend’s dad brought home from work and I don’t think it was on tape.
For me it was a golf game but it was probably ASCII only, played on a green monitor, sometime in the late 70s. I loved that game. Either that or my memory is playing tricks with me.

Me too! Thankfully people don’t post my disasters online or discuss them on Lemmy.

I don’t need AI to make me a bad programmer.
Sadly my current work is 100% windows only. My previous job was all linux, which I really, really miss.


THIS is the year of the Linux desktop!

Yeah, that makes sense. I never thought of that.


I wonder if ZorinOS gathers runtime statistics and can tell if those new installees stick with Linux or switch to Windows or MacOS.

That wasn’t the point of my question.

How can this still be a thing??

This should be illegal.


I’ve got Debian with XFCE on the X220 I’m using as a server. No fuss, it just gets on with its job.
Microsoft aren’t content with 20 different UI styles in windows, they need a 21st. Especially after they saw the latest iOS design.
“Hey! Let’s take the new iOS design but without the transparency!”
Desperate move, desperate times.
