The touchscreen has a mind of it's own at times, responding only when it feels like it. Same for the stylus. I'm keeping a small wireless mouse plugged in so I can use it to get stuff done as needed. The cameras don't work at all, but I always kept them covered with electrical tape anyway, so no loss for me. The on-screen keyboard can be a bit challenging to bring up at times as well. It fits my current needs, but I may look beyond Zorin.

I've tested GhostBSD too. Probably the easiest BSD, but still a long way from being a daily driver.

And I have a very lightly used bridge to sell you.

It works Fine for common things like browsing or LibreOffice. But it can be tricky, wenn you need some specials. So i switched to LMDE and iβ€˜m looking at Fedora right now.

Not going to be the year of BSD. I have been a Linux user for almost 40 years. For much of that time, Linux was only for the hard core. Only in the last few years has Linux been usable for the masses. BSD is still decades behind Linux. It is not ready for the casual user...yet. I hope it gets there. We need all the alternatives to corporate OSes we can get.

maybe "popular linux" is not our "good old linux" anymore...
maybe there is nothing to celebrate or to be happy off...
maybe modern linux is stepping into his dark age...

Maybe it is time of xBSD? πŸ˜‰

I only use it in a VM.
