And not so amusingly, the URL linked from the article
(https://teejeetech.com/tag/zinc/), returned
"
There has been a critical error on this website.

And, the same error was returned by trying to access

which is the URL returned by searching for the OS in google.
So, maybe (that) Zinc, or, its owner and provider, has disappeared?
