Xrey274 I'm glad that this innocent and genuine question got some of you so defensive. I wonder what about my post was "Over Dramatic"?

That's always going to happen when you criticize something people love (or appear to criticize it). No matter if it's a person, car, philosophy or operating system.
For what it's worth I think that your question is a valid one; especially when you don't follow the IRC channels, twitter of the Core Team etc.; The mods and devs have done a good job of answering it in this thread IMO.
The "Overly Dramatic" was possibly a reaction to your Budgie Desktop View comments; see also Josh's and Harvey's explanation of that situation.

    Scotty-Trees I'm not accusing anyone of not putting in enough time/work to meet my standards of "development". I'm just sharing my own observation of a slowed development and was curious what it was due to. And yes some (definitely not all) of the comments seem to have this prejudice against my question and taking it with the assumption that I have some negative intention (harrasing, making fun or just criticising the developers), which I do not. I have to admit that before Josh's comment I was not aware that Budgie's desktop view is considered feature complete. I still stand on my opinion that it is lackluster, but if this is what the developers have decided, then so be it.

        Xrey274 Again, you have made some broad generalizations in your last post that shows you lack appreciation for what has been explained thus far.

        Xrey274 I'm just sharing my own observation of a slowed development and was curious what it was due to.

        That assumption has been debunked several times. Development has not slowed, but you seem to have this notion that it has. The focus is simply not on what you think it should be.

        There is the disrespect that others have been flagging. If Solus isn't working for you, there a tons of other distros that you are free to move to. However, coming to a forum such as this and expressing yourself in such terms will do you no favours!
