Hello All Community Member,

I feel happy to be here and join the discussions around Zorin OS; My name is Lysander and I have been using Linux based systems for a while now.

I am interested in customizing my setup & learning more about how to get the most out of Zorin OS.
I want to share and gain some knowledge & I want to create my own discussion to resolve my query and gain some knowledge though I have taken part in various discussion which is definitely helped me a lot.

If there are any recommended threads or resources for newcomers. please share

Thank you....
