Yesterday I got shit for supporting ZorinOS Pro. So I guess paying for FOSS.
It seems donations are okay, but when distros frame it as a Pro Version purchase then the FOSS peeps get pissed. Even though no one could point out what’s actually being locked behind the pro version, because spoiler: nothing is locked behind it.
On Lemmy, no one pays for anything but everyone makes a living wage.
Ya, everyone supports workers until the bill arrives.
I also use Zorin. I feel validated
How is zorinOS? Do they ship new software or do they hold it back for testing?
It looks good, things work out of the box and it’s stable. CLI use is minimal, perfect for newbs. Besides that it can keep grandma’s laptop running. So yeah pretty decent OS.
Man, I’m all for paying people for the time and effort they put into software. But what’s the point of Zorin OS? Doesn’t seem better than other Linux-based OSs.
