I get a 404, this is the correct URL:

thats probably because so many people are downloading a 5~7 GB file.

a mirror site[s] or a reputable torrent, would likely be helpful.

try these:

https://zorin.com/os/download/18/core/

Why Zorin? It’s always struck me as a weird distro. I can’t put my finger on why, but it feels off.

I wonder how much of a bump other distros have seen in the same period.

Because usually it works, the out of the box deb + snap + flatpak, polished experience cozy look with some presets to minimice friction, + ubuntu LTS its a nice pack.

They have a very slick and professional looking webpage. Is it weird that that makes me wary? I’m used to the best distros having webpages that look like a wiki or a professor’s website.
