| As a very long time Linux on the desktop user, I absolutely love
| Solus. I've used about everything, but anymore, I just want
| something nice and easy for me out of the box. After the Antergos
| project ended, I decided I wanted something non Arch based, and
| tried Solus for the heck of it. I liked the default wallpaper,
| theme, and despite lacking advanced setups, the installer was
| perfect for my needs. Updates are done once a week, and despite
| the small team, they really mostly stay on top of things. If
| you're a distro hopper, or tired of your current one, give it a
| go.

| Nope, I don't even use Budgie. Despite my distaste for it,
| I'm still a Gnome guy. So, I don't remember why I even tried
| it other than I'd grown tired of Arch based footguns. I
| wanted rolling release, something easy to install that
| supported full disk encryption, and a decent amount of stuff
| via repo. Believe it or not, there's not a lot that ticks all
| those boxes.

|
| I didn't found any 'donate' or 'buy' button.
|
| Hardware costs money, there will be hosting bills to pay, and
| developers sometimes want to eat.
