How many users does Zorin have?
Well, it has been downloaded something a million times, but a concrete number noone knows.

Given how seemingly many Linux users are distrohoppers too, it's really hard to pin down a number for any distribution including Zorin. Also, even though some Linux users stay long term on a distribution like Zorin or Ubuntu, they may go elsewhere for 6-12 months. My personal experience was very varied:
- Zorin, ~2 months
- Solus MATE, ~8 months
- Ubuntu Mate, ~8 months
- Manjaro GNOME/KDE/Cinnamon, ~12 months
- Pop!_OS, ~14 months
- Linux Mint Ubuntu & LMDE, ~24 months
- Zorin OS, ~24+ months
I have concurrently experimented with KDE Neon, Tuxedo OS and Kubuntu too along with MX Linux KDE for several months ranging from 4-6 months each. All are good but have particular quirks that would sometimes annoy me. They were usually related to some Plasma bug and the main reason I usually prefer GTK based desktop environments like GNOME or Cinnamon.
The distributions I stay with as daily drivers and what I recommend are Zorin and Linux Mint Cinnamon (Debian/Ubuntu). They have good communities and are well designed making them reliable and easy to work with.
