I tried Zorin, even paid for the pro version, which is simply a distro with added bloat, repackaged from free software to sometimes look like their own. I was impressed by the clean stock look, but it's pretty limited in terms of customisation. Just go to Linux Mint. Much bigger community and therefore support and let's you customise it a lot more. It's also lighter imo and more stable, although stable is always subjective.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Wtf. He downloaded discord.exe to show it works with a windows installer and then got linked to flathub and installed discord flatpak image. But still thinks he installed windows-version?
I think he was trying to demonstrate for new users that it would redirect them to use the appropriate installer instead of relying on .exe files?
