I have used Zorin for the past year for gaming. It’s been mostly fine, but they are a bit slow to upgrade certain things in the interest of stability. Zorin is on a two year cycle for major releases, which can mean waiting awhile for certain package upgrades.This is probably for the best for non-gamers and regular users, but some games I wanted to play required the latest graphics driver, which in turn required some newer dependencies in the OS.
Lately, I’ve been kinda toying with the idea of switching to Bazzite because every time I tinker with the graphics driver in Zorin, I break it. I’m thinking Bazzite might be a bit more suited for my gaming use cases.
I’m sure Zorin is solid. I went with Bazzite since it does a lot for gaming out of the box and makes updates pretty easy. I have another Laptop with PopOS on it and have really enjoyed that as well. Again - pretty straight-forward experience if you are coming from Windows.
How did you decide between that and Zorin?
