From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This was my first distro! It's very beginner friendly and customization was very easier without requiring knowledge of GNOME extensions (which aren't hard to set up once you know they exist). The Wine integration is nothing short of fantastic making it very easy to install Windows apps and it even recommends some native Linux equivalents (Heroic Games launcher if you try to install Epic Games). I have since switched to Fedora Workstation Edition, but Zorin is a good way to dip your toe in the Linux pool while you learn more about it
