    I feel the same, though having more options for lightweight DEs is better. I came from gnome 2 after Ubuntu switched to Unity DE back in the day. Xubuntu ran nice on all of my kids low power devices and it became my desktop as well ever since. It’s just as happy on my work laptop as well as Ryzen thread ripper with 3 rtx4000s and 3 magewell hdmi capture cards we use for visualization at work too. It really feels like a solid DE with less fuss than most.

    If their last major release was in 2021, they would have been too early for basing off the 22.04 LTS release of Ubuntu. Zorin 17 now appears to be based on 22.04 according to the /dists/jammy folder on the .iso image. The next Ubuntu LTS release is just a few months away, seems like rather bad timing for users. Even though Zorin 17 based on 22.04 will have standard support for 3 more years, it will put a bit more pressure on users to upgrade quickly if Zorin follows this schedule.
