I've been testing other distros, but kept Solus Budgie on my production computers. Nothing compares to it.
A big THANK YOU to the team for this very, very good news ! I'm all in for this journey !

I heard there was some interesting $#%$# going on over here so I decided to poke my head in @JoshStrobl - I also got an email saying my account was unsuspended which I thought was interesting.

Justin Yea been going through and trying to make sure accounts that were disabled for one reason or another are re-enabled.

Hate to be That Guy (but someone has to be, sooner or later) but I have to ask: when can we expect to get the first package updates of the "new" Solus ?
Rebuilding an infra more or less from scratch is not easy in the least, but those updates are loooooooong overdue.....

Addicted to Friday updates too ? 🙂

Yes. And more or less missing three months worth of Fridays 😉

Re: Weekly updates, just a question.
The weekly update feature of Solus was part of the 'Old' (for want of a better word) structure.
In the unchartered waters ahead is it the intention to follow this tradition, or will updates come as and when required, regardless of what day in the week it is.
Im just assuming that Solus is going to still be a curated rolling release but what with the proposed Solus user repository happening sometime, will updates appear on a more frequent basis. Say along the Manjaro route?

seanragout for now "all bets are off" while we get everything back up and running. Ideally we'd get back to a more structured sync window - but with the tooling in the position it's currently at I think it'd be a lot to expect the syncs to increase when things settle down. This is something we'd want to solve for Solus V.

Solus V made me think of Saturn V, which is accurate to compare to:

Very reliable
Way above others
Nothing can compare to

Just chiming in here seeing your first comment on our new journey:
Ikey, your work back in the days before SOLUS existed got me hooked to your fantastic OS and I have never since regretted installing it and installing all versions of SOLUS since!
I have been a true SOLUS Budgie fan and love this community and all you knowledgeable guys out there working on our OS!
Installed SOLUS Budgie also on quite a few family members' laptops (all ThinkPads of several generations, hooray!) and they all love(d) it and are still using 'your' feckin' fab OS (I admit to seeing you, Ikey, as SOLUS' creator)!
So so happy having you on-board and, whatever happened in the past: Let's enjoy our mutual journey ahead!
Thank you for joining the team, thanks also to Josh whose work and communicating skills I admire (that's a genuine praise, Josh, as I'm not an English native speaker).
Cheers, mates!

Missed you guys - welcome back!

As soon as the next ISO comes out, going to check out Solus once again. This distro just keeps on bouncing back from dire situations, which is great!

that's where I'm at too. I'm ready for the .iso. No sense running the old 4.3 right now methinks. My hats off to all the users that stayed and install flatpaks for all their apps instead🙁 .
At the time I had no idea what proper "foss protocols" are when all security updates stop.

brent

Justin you know this is like deja vu all over again🙂

Justin Nice to see you back again Justin.

Starship is a beast. Looking forward to the test.

Bouquins

Justin
Yes, but Starship still has to show what it is capable of. Saturn V made possible what seemed impossible.
Is Serpent OS to Solus what Starship is to Saturn V ? (Just kidding ! I'm happy beyond words to know that Solus will go stronger !)

exploded: no
