“shell: startup” or “shell: common startup” in an explorer window take you to the startup folder for your user or all users. Drop a shortcut in there and you’re done. Been that way for decades.
Okay here is question , show me how in 1.ubuntu 2. Zorin os 3. Pop os . Starting from making a shortcut to a program, by finding whwre is the executable of program.
It’s a rabbit hole
Shortcut? To put on desktop? If it already exists in apps menu, then just drag and drop. Should work on every DE. If doesn’t work on your DE, then do right click on app in menu and look at the options.
If it doesn’t exist in apps menu(very rare), then do right click on executable and see the options.
Thanks for dropping that knowledge… Perhaps in years and years hence I’ll search “Windows add app to startup lemmy” to remember how to do this… I’m much more used to using msconfig to tell Windows apps NOT to start up automatically…

This used to be so much easier back in win 95,98,xp days.
There was a startup folder in the start menu and all you needed to do was drag what you wanted into it.
This is an example of something that got harder.
