Personally, I dislike Zorin, but I can see your point. I didn't know it was Zorin at the time I I just find paywalling some FOSS stuff that isn't entirely yours very weird, and I also don't think users should touch almost anything Ubuntu-based, especially new ones. Mint might be the exception, but it's not to my tastes as well personally.
I think I agree with my university's Linux Users Group recommendation of Fedora, though I personally use Debian.
Honestly, if Debian would tidy up their website, make the Calamares-based installers the default, and perhaps had an installer with backports kernel built-in, it could be the easiest distro out there - I think everything else in Debian is almost perfect for most people. They don't even have to compromise on all that "universal operating system" stuff - they could just offer multiple installers. As for the website, I can get why they need to use a static site with HTML4, but that shouldn't stop them from designing a simple-to-use website.
Also, had no idea you were also in this community. Pleasant surprise.
Rest in peace.
You have brought even more dishonor to your house, Paramount, by canceling it.
Although Prodigy got the equivalent of 4 seasons of Lower Decks.
Honestly, I feel like it showed the value of longer seasons - I felt like we had plenty of time to both develop the plot and get episodic.
While those executive geezers don’t give a darn about animation, seeing Prodigy and Lower Decks makes me really think a 50 minute episode TNG/DS9/VOY format animated series with 15-20 episodes a season could be genius, especially if it looked something like Arcane and was somewhat realistic in some aspects but with stylizations to avoid uncanny valley. You could get more time for character development with less labor concerns than an actual shoot, create more interesting aliens while spending less on VFX, and emulate a classic aesthetic without it looking ridiculous.
