Some minor adjustments have been made to ensure a smoother experience with Zorin 18. There will likely be more, but it seems to be working relatively well as-is.
What if, instead of Chrome, you used Chromium?

It is available in the repositories of most Linux distributions and on snapcraft.io/chromium and lathub.org/en/apps/org.chromium.Chromium.
That's quite possible to do, I would expect the end-user of the script would adjust the installation line accordingly. I mainly do it this way because we are a Chrome-based Google School, so I try to keep it uniform for the students across Chromebooks and Desktops of all types.
Kerberos tickets were failing for logged in users during the fileserver mounting stage, and this was traced to a change in the handling of on-disk ticket files. The cifs.spnego.conf file is now updated with the addition of the -t parameter to fix this.
For deployments you already have, run the following:
sudo sed -i 's/cifs.upcall %k/cifs.upcall -t %k/' /etc/request-key.d/cifs.spnego.conf
