Why on Earth are these nonsense blog rants constantly upvoted here?

It is essentially an unlettered rant that conflates the author’s UI and toolkit preferences with an objective view.

It doesn’t even provide a useful comparison to the evolution of QT to provide for a meaningful reference of its implied assertion that the evolution of GTK is too rapid for devs.

It really is quite useful for a certain user.

It has a really great selection of polished layouts OOTB that can make GNOME look very familiar to whatever the user is used to.

Also has some other great tweaks around WINE for beginners, and a more easily accessible Nvidia option in install media.

I don’t use it myself, but I would suggest it is ideal for someone who is a basic computer user who wants to mostly web browse and use home office tools. It really is ultra-polished.

Yes this could mostly be replicated with extensions and themes, but honestly, unless you have strong feelings about your OS, which most people don’t, it is not worth messing about with this (particularly when installing for others) when Zorin is available; it can be a headache to have to maintain such comprehensive layout changes through extensions and themes without breakage throughout upgrades. It also has the benefits of being based on the very actively developed GNOME, compared to something with a smaller team like Cinnamon, namely much better Wayland support, and in my view more polish.

I don’t know how active it is anymore and how stable on Desktop, but maybe Lomiri?

Deepin also seems similar, in that it seems to sit between the two, but I can’t recommend that due to the persistent disregard of security issues re that DE.

Lumina was something a bit similar to XFCE in that it seemed to want a simple stable base and ui, with only key technologies updated, and lots of options. Looks dead though now, which is a shame as I enjoyed using it for BSDs.

Thanks. That’s very interesting.

That’s an interesting distro. Can you provide a bit more info as to how it differs from a source-first distribution like Gentoo?

Void Glibc is my second-favourite distro. Awesome choice.

Is Gentoo lacking enough popularity?

If so, I use it because it offers unrivalled flexibility, even compared to Arch, portage, which is an epic package manager, a dedicated security team, reasonably large community and developer base, source-based package distribution and fast package updates, which often outpace even arch.
