Buuuut knowing what I know now I worry Zorin's simplicity could turn people off of Linux. Zorin is a good OS for your grandmother but the average person who would consider installing Linux wants to be able to tinker. Heck, I would consider the very act of changing your operating to be tinkering. Nobody accidentally stumbles installing Linux.

The options with Zorin are either use it as-is or risk breaking it. That's why I would personally recommend a KDE distro, probably something immutable like Fedora Kinoite. That way you can tinker to your heart's content with no fear of breaking it.

If you're going to game, just go with Bazzite over Kinoite since the former is based on the latter, just built more for gaming.

And it's awesome.

Yes Bazzite is great I tried it out recently and loved it.

Definitely... There's a little bit of a learning curve when it comes to the different methods of installing stuff, but it's great when you figure it out.
