Hey there
I've been a long time Linux user but mostly on fixed/LTS releases. So it's a new experience I want while keeping my work(web dev/video editing/etc) and hobbies(games, etc)the same, and by that I mean working of course. As far as I know, Solus is a rolling release but not bleeding edge which sounds good to me, it also seems modern and doesn't have tons of useless packages like some distros do.
Plus, I like the name and logo if that's relevant
Anyway, I'd like to ask a couple things:
- As it's a rolling release, keeping your data backedup is obviously something to do(in any OS anyway). Is there a restore system software like timeshift, or a way of making the native package manager give me the output of programs so I can save them into a file and download them all again, at once, if something ever goes wrong?
- No evil intentions behind this one but as everyone know, Linux has had distros and more distros and lots ended up dying. How's the situation on Solus in the sense that can you see it still running in 5 years from now?(You guys got a crystal ball I know).
That's about it.
