It's very simple, and just works out of the gate well. It's ubuntu without the spyware. I'm sure there are many other distros similar, what linux distro do you like?

Oh, I was thinking about testing Zorin, it looks nice, but I still want a regularly updated disto.

I've used PopOS a bit, was a pretty good experience, I'm waiting for their Cosmic DE to release, I hope it'll work well.

It does look beautiful! I didn't mean to discourage anyone from trying it out. I just remember hearing/reading that it is not updated very regularly, but hey, I used an LTS system for way longer than I should have and I was perfectly happy with it. It's not always about having the latest, must updated software. Maybe you want something stable, or something that looks nice and works. To each his own, I say.

I'm also excited about the Cosmic DE! My issue is that I try to not change my system unless I have too, since I use my computer mainly for work and loosing a couple of days setting everything up is more work that it's worth it for me. So I don't know when I'll get a chance to try it out.

Yeah I'll try it, I will probably do some distro hopping, I think between Fedora / Silverblue / Nobara, PopOS and Zorin.

True, better to not change too many things and avoid screwing your setup lol
