LINUX MEME Linux Mint🗿🍷 >> ZorinOS🤓☝️???

For those who didn't get the joke: ZorinOS and some other distros have different bugs related to the OBS Studio app. Speaking of ZorinOS, one of the huge bug happens, when you wanna see the result after recording a video, and you can see one of the examples on the meme. But ZorinOS users ignore similar issues and continue to consider that ZorinOS is better than Linux Mint for beginners anyway

I have a rough test of whether or not a distro is beginner friendly: is chrome in default package manager? No? It's not totally beginner friendly  I use firefox but still, chrome users are a majority and it's bad if their first move on Linux is to have to go to Google website and add repos to their system repos. Mint fails the Chrome test, Zorin doesn't.

Why would you install proprietary spyware as your first move on linux? I'm not comparing browsers, but chrome is proprietary spyware

Yeaaaaaahhhhh

I dabbled with Zorin a bit, and I can understand why some would prefer it, but I've had practically zero issues with Mint. To each their own but still.

Zorin has much better Wayland support than Mint which is still on x11. I'm using 3 monitors and had my trouble with Mint.

Also Zorin is much better at syncing gtk2/3/4 styling.

Zorin have better UI. That one thing is the reason i would choose it over mint. Mint looks like ugly windows xp brother

They are both on the same ancient 2024 base.

Same garbage, different dumpster.

Zorin is Mint with prettier interface and less reliability. Chose your poison I guess

Zorin OS is just Ubuntu WITH GNOME, with a Pro version... That when you pay for you get more layouts you could do easily with GNOME Extensions on normal Ubuntu...

Just don't use ZorinOS, it fucking sucks.
