    mfw when entire distros are advertising UI features of gnome that came standard on every DE like 15+ years ago, including gnome.

    Seriously, Compiz is from 2006.

      Also I find their Zorin OS Pro offer a bit scummy. Now the themes do look nice, but few would spend 50$ for a few themes. So they advertise having 5000$ worth of professional creative alternatives bundled. In screenshots you’ll then see Kdenlive, Blender and Inkscape. I don’t know what to think about the fact they want 50$ for bundling a few themes and free software. If they had just kept the stupid 5000$ part out I would have been fine with it, professional support can be great for people switching over from windows, but this seems a bit scummy to me.

        where the fuck did they mention “$5000” at all???

        Edit: that hasn’t always been there, guess it came with the release. But note how they say “alternatives to”, not the software itself costing that much.
