I'm sure the free version of Zorin is *fine,* but the proposition for Zorin Pro is actually crazy.

CThen don't buy it, lol
Ptry the free version and tell me how quickly it makes you want to pay for support
VI'm going to go out on a limb and say it's literally all free stuff (Although I haven't looked into the different layouts or wallpapers) or it can at least all be near-enough recreated with FOSS software.
Making people, especially new or uneducated people, think that this is a unique thing that you offer is really shitty...

VFuck it I'm not testing Cosmic on the T420 anymore
PLOL
Palso their licencing scheme where you have to pay again for major upgrades is bullshit
VThat MIGHT be the worst part
Pam i seriously to trust that these guys will even be around to support the old version in 2027
VIt's like the playtron proposition, but for regular ass people 
Poh shit
CWhy not install Arch and do the whole setup?
CConvenience, someone will have to do the work
Pthe irony that you are saying this in #
bazzite of all channels
bazzite of all channelsPis not lost on me
VIt's almost like... people will do that, for free?
CVoluntary work vs. paying for a licence is a completely different proposition
CWe're not entitled to support here
VHere, pay me £20 and I'll make your GNOME look like ChromeOS too.
Pyou actually kind of are if they want anybody to use ublue lmfao
VThe license doesn't entitle you to support either.
Gthats like the oldest debate in FOSS lol
PLOL
Gare users of FOSS entitled to support
GI'd argue, yes, but they shouldn't act entitled
Pofc not
Pbut it's a completely different game when you want to move in and start charging the uninformed for their time
CYou know there are people that value their time, right?
Gisn't that why like redhat exists
VI think big companies are entitled to support their users. I don't think Kyle should be held accountable for if Bazzite archived all of it's repos tomorrow.
It's a passion project, if the passion is gone the project won't exist either.

Ghow is any of that different to redhat, beyond the scale
Pyes, that's literally why i assume we're all in the #bazzite channel my dude
bazzite channel my dude
KI don't think Kyle should be held accountable for if Bazzite archived all of it's repos tomorrowGood news is when I get sick of you people nothing is stopping someone else from picking it up. It's free and open and always will be
VUbuntu has money involved, they should entitle their users to support.
Pred hat doesn't ask people for $100~ to have the privilege of learning what the software on their machine is named
Pthis guy gets it
Pliterally already did all the work
Pwhatever
VBest part about that is that's because RedHat know their users are experienced enough to go looking.
Zorin don't name the software because it seems as if they're targeting new users who don't know any better.

LUnless the person after you starts charging for support. :clueless:

TI just want a monitor that isn't going to give me light bleed
TI really hate that
VImagine Zorin store locks me out of downloading GIMP LMFAO
Pand if they did name the software average uninformed people would be able to apply a cost/benefit analysis to it
Pand go
P"oh all this shit is literally free"
Gthis will be more about the price/quality of monitor than the panel type i think
Kbest option is OLED then
VThis UX is going to be fire, I can't wait for the ISO to download.
