Budgie on Solus here.

Have you tried Grayjay? Grayjay gets updates quickly and so I rarely see the issue.

I’ve got a private chat with a small group of friends. That’s my primary social media. We share news and discuss ideas.

Am I the only one on here using Budgie. I just feel more comfortable with the workflow using Budgie.

Says I’m 10%. BMI says I’m 22.5. I think that’s a big difference? I’m very tall, thin, but have solid muscle and work out about two hours per day.

For me it was the opposite. Windows required too much support. It didn’t do what they wanted it to do and bad updates inevitably caused problems. With Solus Linux everything became easier for them.

What do you most like? Thoughts on why others should give it a shot?

Does anyone consider Tumbleweed stable?

Correct.

As far as I know, there are only two independent rolling distros that are stable: Void & Solus. Solus comes out of the box ready-to-go with little-to-no tinkering, with a good aesthetic appeal. I like rolling distros because there’s no retiring my version. I keep it updated and it keeps getting updates. Support for life.

There’s been a few times I built from source but flatpak has been quite the blessing. Solus is also looking for more software maintainers, so if there’s something not in their software center now that you want, it could be a good opportunity to get involved.

Budgie 11 should be coming out soon and is supposed to be full Wayland. Arch is nice if you can stay up on your updates and can tinker if things don’t work right.

There’s self-hosting that’s low risk but does remove some convenience. For example, I use a offline password manager. I keep a Veracrypt container on my computer that hosts that and a few other important files. When I make enough updates, I’ll throw a copy into Dropbox so I can save access it elsewhere. The disadvantage is that I cannot update the primary version from one of those other devices but, for me, that’s not really an issue.
