Ubuntu Vs Zorin OS | Which is the Best Linux Distro? (For 2022)
I wanted to find out if Zorin OS is really that good and even better than Ubuntu as some say. So I installed both Ubuntu and Zorin OS on the same machine and started using them both for all my day to day tasks.

After 2 weeks of playing with these two fantastic distributions, comparing them side by side in every aspect. I can say Zorin OS is really one of a kind operating system. It is impressive. But I also found out that people use Ubuntu more than Zorin or any other distribution, because Ubuntu has a trump card up its sleeve that actually forces you to like it more. It’s crazy.
The war between Ubuntu and Zorin OS was really interesting.
So let’s jump right in and see how Ubuntu and Zorin OS compare against each other in performance, User interface, software department, usability, stability and finally see which of these 2 is the best Linux distribution for you. Ubuntu or Zorin OS.

debian+ubuntu/zorin theme?
linux never win windows on desktop use with 1m distros. they should make one linuxOS where you can choose enviroment and all themes .
themes cant hold (distro extras)
Weird, they didn't feel "premium" at all to me.
At least when you start trying to get actual work done in the file explorer, or with windows or open app management. The taskbar just kind of fails at hopening a ton of windows. I really h8t3d the thmbnail window previews on teh taskbar, and then it switches to a vertical text list when it becomes too many. Just always use the text list. But no way to change it.
I ended up reformatting them both eventually and going back to Windows7.
Zorin All day. I like its look way better.
Zorin's way of monetizing is way smarter than how Ubuntu does it. Love both of them, but I'm going to switch to Zorin soon
Zorin is designed to replace Windows & Mac OS for NON Linux users. Ubuntu is designed for Linux users. Not comparable. E.g. if I replace Windows PC in a business with Ubuntu the IT Dept. would be overwhelmed with user help desk traffic. Not so with Zorin. Get it?
I just found this video. I am relatively new to Linux. I paid for the "top tier" Zorin OS so that I could change up the look of the desktop more easily. Currently dual-booting with Windows 10 on a computer with 16GB RAM. Cannot upgrade the Windows side to Win 11 because my processor is not compatible. I did have a bit of trouble getting online in Zorin as I access the internet via a USB WiFi adapter with a Realtek chip. But I did my research and got to play in the terminal, too. Works like a charm now. I really like Zorin so far. I recommend it for newbies.
Use Zorin for a few days and it kept crashing Kodi and one laptop screen glitched a lot. I did not have either problem when I installed Ubuntu
Thebubuntu dock is unoptim
Bro was this a paid review? I've watched multiple video of you , where you praised so much about zorin. So i installed it over mint. Amd found slow boot time, all source of software part is not working. Yes wine is broken but it is more broken in zorin. You just wasted my time and my machine
I love Zorin OS so much that I'm a donator of the project but development is slow and it takes ages to release new versions(plus the other comments about old Gnome versions is a big deal, so many missing performance improvements).
If they could integrate new versions quicker it would be my number 1 distro for sure.
But to release Zorin OS 17 based on Ubuntu 22.04 áfter Ubuntu 23.10 is released(I think Zorin 17 is planned for november) is lagging behind a lot.
What happens after you've used these for over five years??
Biggest flaw in Zorin is it is slow to update to the latest Ubuntu LTS. They are still running on 20.04 even though 24.04 is less than a year away. By the time Zorin gets to 22.04 Ubuntu will only be 6 months or so away from 24.04.
I understand staying 6 months or so behind for the bugs to be worked out in the latest LTS before they move over but being 1.5 years behind is pretty bad.
But I do love the support for Snaps and Flatpaks right out of the box with no configuration. I also am not a fan of the stock Ubuntu look.

ZORIN, ZORIN,ZORIN
Linux Desktop is just garbage. Everywhere buggy and unreliable.
Old Ubuntu used to be the best, now it is mess when comes to drive, installation, bugs etc. I use only for server.
Do we have to pay every year or month to use zorin os pro
You have to pay for Zorin.
I'm not a developer, just use the computer for what I need it for. And then Zorin OS is the ultimate choice.
Just installed Zorin on my old 32-bit Netbook with Celeron. Zorin 15.3 performance is pretty comparable to Windows 7 but web browsing Windows 7 hands down is way better.
I can’t even watch youtube with Zorin. Stutter and no sounds. about:config tweak did nothing.
Those with 32-bit machine please just stick with old Windows. Windows 7 is solid. But those with 64-bit machine or newer you guys should give Zorin a try. The DE is great and beautiful. Extremely good for beginner.
