I set Slow Mode
temporarily.
Folks, being new to something is often frustrating. Imagine learning how to drive in a car that is an Automatic transmission, then having to learn how to drive in a manual transmission Dune buggy with rocket engines.
There is a lot to learn and a lot to take in. Because a new user wants to be able to use their O.S. right away, it becomes a lot to take in in a short amount of time.
Many people do not remember how frustrating and annoying it was the first time they tried learning Windows OS.
And once they did, they did not want to go through that again.
I remember my first few days of moving away from Windows and trying out Zorin OS were... lol... No fun to watch.
I complained a lot...
This is not High School where we get to poke fun at the incoming freshmen.
As the comment I made above:
There is a lot to learn, not just in learning Linux, but in learning (and appreciating!) the variety in the available Desktop Environments.
Yes, different desktop environments are different. That is a good thing.
Linux Mint uses Cinnamon Desktop. Zorin OS uses Gnome or XFCE.
But as note above, you * can install cinnamon Desktop* on Zorin OS (Which I do already and use it on my own computer.) IF that is more familiar to you, it may be the way to go. And Cinnamon does not bog down and get sluggish on Zorin OS.
