I run 21 different linux distros on my 3 hard drives. Naturally, I don't have the time to keep them all updated. I have my "daily driver" and keep 3 or 4 updated in case that distro goes away or I mess things up severely - many times 🙁. Solus wasn't one of them.
I've run Solus from back in the original developer days. So today I decided to boot it up and "eopkg up". I hadn't been on Solus since my old nvidia card got replaced by a less old Radeon HD 5450. Anyway 521 packages were being updated. Then it took me quite a while to get screen to work nicely with the Radeon driver.
So here I am back running this fast and beautiful Budgie desktop and all this despite the last "Release" comment on the site being over a year and a month ago! Not for nothing it's a "Rolling distro"!
Solus has now joined the "select few" group.
So Thanks again to the devs... both new and those of long ago!! And Yes, I have donated.
