Never tried Solus, although I've tried Budgie and can't say I was super impressed with it. Its statusbar feels very much like a late beta more than something ready to be pushed to the public; you can rearrange it how you'd like, but it lacked locking - opening too many windows would just start pushing UI elements out of the way instead of decreasing the per-window space on the bar. It'd also consistently fail to use the right battery icon no matter what icon set I chose, showing 60+ percent remaining when I was under 30%, etc.
Despite those flaws, it still felt more usable than Gnome Shell, at least, with less hoops to jump through before you could optimize things.

It's actually come along way and prefers far better on Solus than using it on another Distro. Like using it on openSUSE, it's almost unusable because it conflicts so much with other GNOME features used by openSUSE.
Using a clean install of Solus is just amazing. It's hands down the fastest distro I've used without stripping features from it. I am also a fan of the small repos. It has all the programs I use and I only really use Steam for gaming.
Also it seems to use the semi-rolling release style that I love so much!
Keep in mind that this isn't a fresh install, this is how I want my desktop and panel to look.
So I started using Solus again after I stopped using it.
Shortly after making a few complaints/suggestions, they updated and fixed all the problems with the previous build. So that's pretty awesome

Yep that's correct, it isn't Miraculous related for once.

I want to love Solus because it has everything I love, expect one thing. It doesn't have any of the PC games I actually play. And installing them failed all the time.
The repos are still too small for me and the distro is still too new. Maybe in a few years when it matures more I will go back to it, but for now I am going back to the distro that made me love Linux and that was Fedora.

It does.This thread need more Felix wallpapers.
But seriously, to anyone one wanting to try Solus, do so! It's amazing! It's sable, rolling, community is great. But don't expect a lot of software and games aren't really there.
Still, it's a unique experience for Linux and fun to play with.

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though. -
