Hey guys, I'm new to Linux, trying out Zorin. I'm not sure if it was something I did, but when I go to notifications in settings, I am only seeing the default apps that came with Zorin. None of the Apps that I downloaded are showing there. Anyone have any idea what I may have done and/or what I can do to fix it. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hi you will only see updates to apps that are in the approved Ubuntu/Zorin repos. For example Opera browser would need to have the latest one installed by downloading the appropriate .deb package.

Oh okay. One of the apps is Discord, and I'm pretty sure I've seen it before in a previous install of Zorin. I have reinstalled Zorin and now it isn't there. Maybe I was wrong and it wasn't there before.

Hi, Discord is not present in Zorin OS - it is present on FerenOS and Makulu Lindoz OS. ;) :D
