Says some distro nobody’s ever heard of
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.

also because w11 is filled with glitches and bugs to the brim.
Decade of the Linux Desktop. It’s here guys!
Pretty sure 80% of them are just people distro hopping, we know the Linux community 😂

How popular is it against other distros? First I've heard of it (admittedly doesn't say much since I'm used to the older ones), which makes me wonder how close to a million people did. Did influencers spread the word or something?
I've noticed Zorin does a lot of marketing and it comes in waves, you won't hear anything for months then it'll be everywhere for a few days.
I switched from Windows 10 to Mint. While there is a steep learning curve with basic things like adding an icons to the menu, I'm wishing I made the move earlier. There is a noticeable performance improvement with Stable Diffusion.
Swapped over to Mint a couple days ago, it plays ATOM RPG so I am contented with my slave jank.
Alternatively, just... keeps Windows 10.
Am I crazy? Like, I would legitimately reinstall Windows 95 were it relatively feasible.
Is it really that ill-advised to rely on outside providers for additional security features?

So... a few months before this, Linux had been noted to have just tipped 5% desktop market share...
What's it going to be like now? 6%? 10%!?
1.5 billion windows users, another million transfers to 1.499 billion windows and +0.001 billion Linux. The windows number was purely from Google, no validation has been done.

I'm just waiting till I can install SteamOS honestly. Love my steam deck, and wanted to turn my old win 10 PC into a Linux machine but has issues getting any distro loaded because I'm dumb and it's old. Hoping that when they release SteamOS for the chumps I'll be able to work it though probably will just be left holding an old win 10 pc lol.

There are two things that are keeping me attached to Windows - my PC not supporting Win11, and Photoshop. My god, if anyone can get a copy of Photoshop to work with Linux, I will say goodbye to Microsoft immediately.
(Yes, I've tried GIMP, Krita, et al. They didn't click for me. This is what 24 years of working with Photoshop does to a mf)
There is literally a "photoshop UI" plugin for GIMP, did you try it?
(Also, virtual machines/wimboat exist).
