Zorin OS 17 isn’t going to dethrone Linux Mint any time soon. I wish they switched to following Ubuntu LTS releases instead of being on their own timeline. 22.04 package base is going to be 2 years old by the time this releases.
They obviously spent a lot of time on aesthetics and simplicity which seems to be the main appeal of the distribution.
