Most people haven't heard of zorin OS. People used to Mac and windows should try it. It has its own app store with all the apps needed by a regular Joe.

I tried Mint about a year ago, and one of the things I really didn't like was having to get my software from some appstore. It seemed very limited. I'd much rather just be able to download an executable and install it that way. Feels like I have more control over what I can actually use my pc for.

You can. Its like using a Mac. Its easy to install form app stores for people who are not computer savvy. Zorin have lot of apps atleast all that I use in my day to day use.
