@Aravisian maybe merge the topic with this one 20 things to do after installing Zorin 16 - #9 by StarTreker
About the same subject ?

That is a good suggestion and they are very similar.
That thread is covering a particular video guide and it's suggestions, whereas this one is aimed toward user suggestions. Merging them may also get confusing as the timestamps of the postings would really spread them out through the thread.
There is a splinter thread to this one, also... on Discussing the topics of this thread, since it was getting pretty filled by non-suggestions.

Some folks don't recommend turning off the journaling.
Here is what they say:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=293779
They also posted:
The considerable range in the lifetime of an SSD is related to different storage technologies:
- Single-level cell SSDs (SLC) have a particularly long life, although they can only store 1 bit per memory cell. They can withstand up to 100,000 write cycles per cell and are particularly fast, durable, and fail-safe.
- Multi-level cell SSDs (MLC) have a higher storage density and can store 2 bits per flash cell. They are more cost-effective than the SLC type but can only tolerate up to 10,000 write cycles per cell.
- Triple-level cell SSDs (TLC) can hold 3 information bits per memory cell. However, at the same time, life expectancy can drop to 3,000 memory cycles per cell.
- Quad-level cell SSDs (QLC) accommodate 4 information bits per cell. Reduced costs, more storage capacity, and higher storage density are also associated with a shorter service life with this type of device. Manufacturers usually only guarantee 1,000 write or erase cycles per cell.
Although the range in SSD life spans is considerable, all SSD types have a sufficiently high life expectancy with moderate use (with some limitations, including for QLC SSDs).
So in addition to what is posted above you have to consider this as well. They say 10 years is the long end of a avg user
I thought about the cost of my SSD and the breakdown over its lifetime to be fair for cost and replacement within that range fair

Ok. I don't have idea how it works. I choice a app Line and what next? I don't know where to login. It forward me to webbrowser this app. How start this line app? Maybe because tutorial on this webbrowser talking to much but don't show how funcionally using that.
It is confusing...yes. I checked it out. I don't think it would work in Ferdi. I can't even understand where it would work. There is a chrome extension. Do you even use it?
Check wikipedia to know more about Line....
Most services work only in Eastern Asian countries.
Line can installed with wine but maybe also some another idea on websides. I remember some software in linux can run app mobile.
I saw that Pop!_OS Shell is already mentioned in this thread. But while you are at it, I can highly recommend also installing Pop_OS! Launcher. It used to be part of Pop!_OS Shell but now you need to install it separately and it works great on Zorin
If you have ever run Pop!_OS you know how powerful the launcher is. It's like search on steroids. With the launcher, you can:
- Launch applications
- Open specific menus in Settings
- Perform searches on specific websites (ex. google system76)
- Perform calculations using the prefix: = (ex. =5+7+6)
- Search recent files using the prefix: d: (ex. d:FileName)
- Open file folders using one of two prefixes: / or ~/ (ex. ~/FolderName)
- Run a command using one of three prefixes: t: or : or run (ex. run top)
- Show launcher features by typing a question mark

Install GNOME Sushi (for nautilus only)
It has the same function as the Mac OS like "Quick Look" feature which comes handy when you are looking for an image or pdf but the thumbnail is too small or the file manager could not create the thumbnail. It creates a preview for the file when you click on the file and press space bar. When you press the space bar again, it closes the preview.
It works with images, pdfs, most text document formats and videos too!!

34. Enable zRAM
zRAM dedicates a portion of your RAM to act as a swap space, but compressed to save RAM.
This is faster than traditional swap on HDD and SSD as it uses the speed of the RAM.
To enable zRAM, just type this on the terminal:
sudo apt install zram-config
And reboot your system, zRAM is now configured.
