Balkatov That's interesting to read, because I went the opposite direction with one of my machines, which is exactly 10 years old. Since Solus dropped support for nvidia-340 drivers virtually overnight, I went for Ubuntu, then Xubuntu and that machine is so snappy now that I can hardly see a difference between it and my newer, beefier desktop. With the coming extended LTS edition, I can potentially squeeze another decade out of that computer. I dislike the idea of forced obsolescence, so I am pretty happy about that.

That said out-of-the-box GNOME Ubuntu is significantly heavier than GNOME Solus, so the latter immediately offers superior experience if GNOME is your preferred flavor.

    I've tried many Linux distributions, but I've yet to find one that beats the simplicity, elegance, and speed of Solus. So many other distros are unnecessarily complicated and seems to throw everything but the kitchen sink at you. My favorite distribution at one time was Pardus, the original version that used the Pisi package manager, which I loved. So glad Solus adopted it. Keep up the great work!

    I am a long time Linux veteran and Distro-hopper. My machines are all on Macs. Ironically I just like the pretty yet don't like OSX that much. Then there's Solus. Everything about this Operating system is perfect for macs out of the box except for one small issue which seems to be the locked down propriety facetimehd driver. Luckily the Devs responded kindly about adopting the driver for Solus. I don't say this lightly but, once there's full support for facetimehd for the macs, you bet, A bunch of Mac folks will use Solus as it is extremely fast, customizable and it completely blows OSX out of the water and even Linux too. The best part I like about it is the familiarity of package management and the inner workings are familiar but with a little learning curve that's easy to adapt. High props to the Devs and everyone involved in Solus. I suggest users to consider donating to support their obvious perfect operating system. Let's make Solus shine above all like the new TOP OS.

      I have been using Solus since Januari 2020 and really happy with the distro. Now I am using Solus as my daily driver. Keep up the good works Solus Teams. I do really appreciate your works 🙂

      thosol : I have make luckyback running. download the .deb-package http://sourceforge.net/projects/luckybackup/files/0.5.0/debian-9.0/luckybackup_0.5.0-1_amd64.deb/download . then unpack all and do manually copy all files in your system. after that you need 4 libs (from an other linux-system, like debian or LMDE4 ): libqtgui.so.4, libqtcore.so.4, libqtnetwork.so.4 and libaudio.so.2 . take the latest versions of the libs and rename, then copy in /usr/lib64. it works fine.
