    This was my guess. This shit doesn't come from nowhere. My bet is that some big wig or VC backed it and is trying to get ROI.

    Nah, y'all just young. Zorin's designed to look extremely Windows-like, and they've always gotten a bump when Microsoft has a stroke. Last time they grew a lot was Windows 8.

    If anything, this is just a sign of how badly Microsoft has fucked up with Windows 11.
