First reboot after update (budgie) and everything feels so much snappier.. i dunno if its placebo or not yet - but i felt i had to say it anyways.. with the usual bs reservations ofc (lol). Seriosly tho, thanks devs! 🙂

you'd think that the new gnome wallpaper selection thingy was an improvement, but its not, maybe it is if ur on 16:9 but 21:9 wallpapers are just a blur

    Actually I myself hate Desktop Icons. However, I know that it's a required feature for many, so removing it makes no sense.

      dbarron I personally don't use it either, but I also recognize that how I use software and my needs may not be the same as someone else's 🤷‍♂️

      Update done on two pc's without any issues, like berk mentioned i also noticed that my system feels snappier. Thanks to everyone involved in this awesome update!

      i switched to budgie. got tired of fighting gnome half the time. budgie is nice, it just works. it lacks a few things/options that gnome has but i think the people who made, whoever they might be, must be decent folk

      JoshStrobl If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

      Didn't know you work on LinuxMint as well 😁

      Great update, however, no kernel 5.3? Waiting for it because of Navi. I was hoping finally login into desktop, not comandline only 🙂

        No because we needed to revert it, it broke a bunch of NVIDIA hardware and basically made it impossible for those devices to ever boot or get to a graphical environment.

        Sorry but I'm not going to sacrifice existing users with slightly older hardware (not that old, it was happening on GTX 1050's) just so probably not even 0.5% of our potential user base can use Solus.

        I understand that. it's OK.
        Plan now is to wait for 5.4 or there could be some fixes in near future for 5.3?

          DataDrake I just wanted to jump on the "let's troll Gnome a little" spirit of this thread 😅

          The Gnome guys have a thing for disguising the removal of existing features, presenting that as "new features" instead, therefore my comment.

          I love the new gnome-terminal layout on Budgie! Upper left corner to select new tab and/or profile. No more going to settings first. Thanks dev guys! 😁
