With the latest release of Solus, I feel I should ask. I have had my eye on this particular distro for some time now. I even did a test installation about two years ago, but it didn’t feel as complete as I needed it to be.

I am looking for a solid, beginner-friendly rolling Linux distribution for general use. Multimedia, gaming, coding etc. Do you recommend Solus? If so, why? Why not? Looking forward to your thoughts.

    Thank you for your suggestion of Tumbleweed (I assume you are writing about). Checking that out as well.

      I think they mean the fact that the development team has seen some shuffling and the project stagnated for a bit. I love Budgie, which comes from Solus, but I’d rather use it on a different distro than using Solus, which seems a bit off-balance at the moment. Give them time to stabilize before trying them.
