Always can't wait to hear "As always, let's start with a little bit of context"😂❤
Great review. I'm glad you reinstalled after I mentioned the kernel issue on the last video. This is one of those distros that just does everything I need including providing every app I use for my workflow within the software center in native packages.
Budgie along with Deepin are the GOAT of Linux DEs.
I switched to Fedora 40 and installed cachyos kernel and done a few other tweaks last night. Gaming is awesome but you have me wanting to try Solus now because you mentioned how smooth it was gaming, I really enjoy your videos I've learned a lot from you
this video is very helpful u gained a sub
Have known about Solus since about 2016/2017 but only since 2019 I'm daily driving it on my laptop. It's rock stable, hasn't let me down even after updates, feels very snappy & quick on Budgie/Gnome like no other distro, the commands to install software are really simple & overall is the perfect fit for me as it has all my required applications in the repo; I love it a lot & has cured me of distrohopping since 2019
Yes ! Super vidéo. Ça semble très prometteur solus . En gros si on touche pas au kernel et si on a pas NVIDIA ça fait quand même bien le taf ! Merci
Solus team is making progress. We need to wait.
They've been "making progress" since Ikey left. If you're still waiting that's on you.
my fav distro :D
Could the stutter maybe also be from the scheduler?
I tried Solus today and everything is super smooth until something happen on my second screen or a get a discord/Whatsapp Message, then I get stutter in the exact moment the new Messages comes in.
I've been using Solus for over a year now, but my gaming machine has stayed on Windows just because of inertia and desire to keep it around for odd proprietary software that doesn't work with Wine. As a office machine with some development capabilities, it's one of my top choices because the desktop and packaging does get out of the way. It's just not as feature-rich as a Debian or Arch-based distro because it's redone some important system internals from the beginning and hasn't been around long enough to address stuff like gaming graphics, or tablets that aren't Wacom(there are packages for Wacom, but for other manufacturers, up until just last week you had to build and run opentabletdriver yourself - fortunately someone has taken on maintenance so this particular wart may be fixed).
I have question that needs an up-to-date answer: Is it worth it to use a custom kernel instead of the default one? I believe that it makes sense to think that the gap between default and custom kernels is getting smaller. This might be wrong, tho. Could you compare the performance across kernels like default, xanmod, xanmod RT, liquorix, Zen? Of course, focusing on gaming performance.
I heard that Solus is not exactly up to date (2024), because it was abandoned years ago, and then restarted, so the status is not quite clear. Is this true!
Nice vid
OK. There are rly a lot of Distros now in the YT Gaming bubble.
Endeavour, Cachy, Garuda, Nobara, Pop OS, Mint, now Solus and certainly some more.
I don't rly get which one to choose for what advantage??
I mean Games should work, drivers should work, while having as little clutter as possible and giving you the most hardware performance possible.
Can we rank the Distros by that metric?
I have done a tier list 2 months ago: ruclips.net/video/pkc-rD_-2zA/видео.html It does not include all the distros I reviewed in between. I will make another one in 3 months from now with all the updated reviews.
Im on nobaraTried fedora, pop os MX linux but disapointed had couple issue. I juste tried solus on a VM I might be switching from nobara since solus is independant. The worse scenario... redhat doesnt sponsor fedora anymore.. it might have a lot impact same for canonical for ubuntu... but Id prefer go with solus after halfday using solus nothing wrong yet except timeshift a bit tricky to install.. other than that I managed to install onedrive and GUI from abraunegg smoothly. on nobara it partially work I feel.. I highly recommend you solus
Are Fedora and Debian what Solus could be?
I find that gaming on Budgie is more fluid than KDE or Gnome. I have no clue WHY this is, since it's on the same platform as Gnome, but it just feels more fluid to me, less stuttering.
Sympa ta chaine. :)
Try the Void linux
Solus has always been my favourite disribution for gaming, the only problem is that the Solus project has vanished for a long time, then it has come back from nowhere. So the future of this distro is not clear and repositories are sparse, but for gamaing it was the fastest imho.
Hello Kermit!
Except they can't get the printing bug dealt with. It's been a problem since their rebirth. Loads of people complain that their printers are not recognized. Until that gets resolved they won't go anywhere.
I don't like solus or the people in charge BUT... how many people still use home printers? No, really.
In my particular case, the printer connected through Wifi gets recognised with no issue
@@AlucardNoir but it still should just work, just like on other distros. just saying only a few users use that specific feature, does not invalidate them
Solus hasn't been good in years.
Since their pause last year, Solus has been doing better like never before
solus is dead project :(
Rly?
@@Taunteuryes
Where is that stated? So far the team is doing better than ever
@@SithhyBetter than ever???? R you kidding me? Olmost project was closed.
@@user-wq8cp3bi9k Yeha, it was almost closed. Since then it's doing better than ever with more than regular updates & more talkative devs. I can recommend it as a daily driver
Hey A1RM4X, there is "Official port linux-cachyos-bore and linux-cachyos-lts for Fedora" in COPR. Would be cool if you test it in new Fedora 40
