any additional effort on customization. Hence, i compiled a list of the most beautiful
Linux distributions you can try right now and give your PC a visual makeover.
Most Beautiful Linux Distributions of 2022 1. Zorin OS
The first Linux Distribution which we would like to feature is Zorin OS.
The Zorin OS is a beautiful Linux distribution that uses Zorin Desktop based on GNOME. It is
perfect for newcomers who wants a nice desktop but are also productive at the same time.
One of the unique features that Zorin OS brings is its ability to transform
its look to make it like any other operating system. That means the taskbar, application menu,
and the Dock can change with just one click option from its Layout settings,
and this gives you the utmost flexibility and out of the box experience while using ZorinOS.
2. Elementary OS The elementaryOS is one
of the most beautiful Linux distributions today based on Ubuntu Long Term Support (LTS) release.
This Linux Distribution uses the stunning Pantheon Desktop environment
whose look and feel is inspired by macOS.
The elementary OS is perfect for those coming from macOS to the Linux world
as they would find many things familiar, such as gestures and window decorations.
However, you may not find many customization options available in elementary OS settings.
You may need to depend on external script commands to make further customization. However,
the default looks are beautiful and serve their purpose for the majority of the users.
The most significant advantage of elementary OS is its curated app store. The App Store provides
you with all categories of applications specially designed for the elementary OS,
which looks and works great. 3. Deepin OS
The third distribution which we would like to highlight is Deepin OS. The Deepin OS
is based on Debian and was created by Deepin Technology Co from China. It uses its own Deepin
Desktop Environment based on Qt. The Deepin desktop looks incredible with its widgets,
colour schemes, window decorations, wallpapers that give you an out of the box visual treat.
With its well-polished visual components, you may think that it looks almost similar to macOS. And
thanks to the Debian “stable” branch, Deepin OS is the perfect choice if you want an excellent
looking Linux distribution with stability. Why is Deepin OS beautiful?

global menu is perfect for its own. One of the primary advantages of Garuda
is it provides you with the choice of all desktop environments – KDE Plasma,
GNOME, Xfce, LXQt, MATE and others. 7. Linux Mint Cinnamon Edition
We all love Linux Mint because of its simplicity, elegance and stability.
It is one of the widely used and famous Linux distributions today. And perhaps the most used
Linux distribution after Ubuntu. However, it is not that fancy looking if you compare this with
other Linux Distributions here in this list. But the default Cinnamon desktop looks
clean and perfect if you like the legacy user interface, which looks fantastic.
The Linux Mint Cinnamon edition is perfect for all users, especially new users of Linux
or even you are migrating from Windows. The default looks and feels with Mint’s
green colour pallette look refreshing. If you are unable to decide an eye candy
Linux distribution with stability, choose the Linux Mint Cinnamon edition without a doubt.

features a modified version of KDE Plasma desktop called NX Desktop. This unique Linux distribution
brings its own set of Nitrux applications built upon Maui kit and Qt. Nitrux is systemd-free
and uses OpenRC as an init system. With all these unique features and stunning looks, it is
one of the best Linux distributions today. Nitrux OS default look is perfectly designed
with modified KDE Plasma desktop with Kvantum theme engine, icon theme,

Nitrux OS. You won’t be disappointed. 9. Ubuntu Kylin

who use a simplified Chinese script. However, it supports another language as well.

in terms of looks and design. It features a nicely designed icon set,
bottom taskbar, nice application view, app switcher, rounded corner, and more These features
are carefully crafted. 10. Pop OS
