OK, so you've joined exozyme! Now what? You can start with <b>exodesk</b> and access your exozyme desktop. You'll need an RDP remote desktop client. Linux users can use the FreeRDP client in their distro's repository, while Windows has a built-in client called Remote Desktop Connection. Mac users can use the <a href="https://install.appcenter.ms/orgs/rdmacios-k2vy/apps/microsoft-remote-desktop-for-mac/distribution_groups/all-users-of-microsoft-remote-desktop-for-mac">Microsoft Remote Desktop Beta client</a>. If your OS wasn't listed, check <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-clients">this list</a>.

Alright, now spin up the client and connect to the address <i>exozy.me:3388</i>. Please make sure you have enabled 16-bit color and resize on window resize in the connection settings and that you aren't in fullscreen after connecting. This saves bandwidth and improves the experience of all users. Anyways, you should see a login screen, where you'll type in your username and password for your exozyme account. If it all works, it should drop you into a desktop! It might take a few seconds to load properly. Enjoy your remote desktop!

The first thing you should do is open up a terminal and change your password. The easiest way to do this is by searching for "terminal" in the application menu in the bottom left corner. Now change your password with the <i>passwd</i> command. Note that the GPU currently isn't that good, so games may not work well. Also, please remember to log out when you are done which you can do by searching for "logout" in the application menu.

So what can you do with exocloud? Well, judging by the sheer number of icons on the top bar, a lot! There's cloud storage, an email client, photo manager, music player, calendar, and an integrated Element Matrix client. Have fun!
