It's actually a good Linux distro and is made specifically for desktop use.

>>57804062
Elaborate.

>>57800065
are you underage OP? what is this book?

>>57804081
It's rolling release so things are up to date. It's the most stable distro I've used (I've used Ubuntu, Debian, Void, Arch, Manjaro, Elementary, Mint, Deepin, Apricity, Zorin, etc.). You're able to talk with the devs and creator whenever you want. It's probably the most optimized distro (excluding ones where you build from source, such as Gentoo), where the boot times are better than every other distro, and everything is super snappy and responds fast and even opens up faster than other distros. It is made specifically for desktop use, not server use. It is optimized for the desktop.

>>57804202
Forgot to mention the package manager. eopkg is one of the best package managers I've used (PacMan being the other), and the Solus team is making anew package manager to replace it that will be even better. sol.

And it's not a reskin. It will eventually be leaving GNOME stack and some point in the future GTK.

>>57804302
How is battery life? and How are the boot times so quick, any technical explanation would be helpful. I don't want to search through their code.

>>57804333
Ubuntu was never that fast on a fresh install, and neither was Arch. Using the same SSD and hardware in all the scenarios. Solus has the fastest boot times.

>>57804340
> will eventually be leaving
>some point in the future


so it is a gnome reskin

>>57804354
How are boot times on a HDD? Fedora boots in 3 mins on my HDD. Is Solus only fast to boot on SSDs?

>>57804348
Battery life is about 30 minutes better than it was on Ubuntu, and the boot times are quick because the devs optimized the h*ck out of it. If you want something more in depth talk to the creator and devs.

>>57804364
No.

>>57804302

It's an encyclopedia I've had since I was like 4 years old. A gift from my parents.

Anyways, I installed and played around with Solus a bit last night and I'm legitimately impressed.

SystemD analyze showed 9.xx seconds on my HDD, massive improvement over >>57799985, I can run systemD analyze again when I get home tonight if you're interested in the exact figures.


My whole laptop feels snappier and more responsive too, like my programs open up a few microseconds faster.

I'm a little disappointed by the low numbers in the software centre, but it's got web browsers and media players, so far it's doing everything I need.

>>57811680
Could you compare to other distros you have tried in the past for these questions.

does it perform smoother or worse than your previous distro?

Is it just booting, or do your programs also load up faster?

What's your thoughts on it after trying it?

>>57811829
I was using Debian stable before Solus. In general, opening applications are slightly faster. Browsing files/loading thumbnails is much faster in solus.

Oddly enough though, screenfetch takes a couple seconds to display, which was not the case with debian.

Main reason I switched was because some of the dependencies for debian were getting insane (180+ packages for krita, 19 needed for it on solus).

The repos have most things I want, just wish they had more file manager options.

>>57811980
Thank you.

I think I'll try it tonight on my laptop then, should be interesting. Currently running Ubuntu 16.10, but I'm not satisfied.

There's a whole thread right here that's proving you wrong baka

Fuck off, Kevin.

i have no intention of trying it (no spare/new machines at the moment) but what exactly is the point? were there not enough mature, stable, established distros out there? why would someone feel the need to create their own shitty version of Cinnamon with their own spin on the same useless "features" that every other shitty DE offers and a UI/widget kit that looks like it was ripped off from bootstrap.js, throw in a new and equally shitty package format, and then make a whole distro around it? is it just some clever ruse to get "donations" and "grants" from "non-profits"?

in all seriousness, can someone please explain in real terms how solus is better than Debian, Gentoo, Slackware, SuSE, etc.?

Solus is in general a better distro than what's out there but budgie and nautilus are dragging the distro down. The worst file manager on Linux is default only alternative caja, which changes the background for some dried reason. Its better but not great. Budgie then uses fucking libmutter. I hate that fucking windows manager. Make a shortcut for resizing windows and one expect it to grab the bottom right of the windows but no. It grabs the SIDE of which your mouse you dragged to. Fucking gnome devs die in a fire

>>57811980
>the dependencies for debian were getting insane (180+ packages for krita, 19 needed for it on solus)
so you have absolutely no idea how dependencies and packages work. there are Slackware packages that have ABSOLUTELY NO DEPENDENCIES because they just bundle the libraries and other components in a single package whereas other distributions separate them. it doesn't change the fact that program X will still need libraries Y and Z to run.

I'm dead serious, is this some forced meme trolling to get all the idiots on /g/ to install literal botnets disguised as a user-friendly linux OS?

>>57816055
Everything anyone dislikes on /g/ is automatically a botnet/shilling/consumer-tier shit to that person. It helps you rantionalise why others like the thing you don't like. You'll get used to it.

>>57816080
what other motive would there be for trolls to shill an OS to idiots using forced memes? someone is either getting pork off this or spreading some sinister malware (don't pretend that "free, open source software" can't be malicious). this has nothing to do with personal taste.

>>57816055
Like it or not, solus completed installing in less than 10 minutes where as a debian cd would take an hour, so granted not a great test of how lightweight something is, but not meaningless in my eyes.

>>57816193
And by cd, I mean the cd iso. Both were installed via usb

>>57816193
and i thought there was nothing more meaningless you could throw out as a """""legitimate"""""" reason solus was better than the time it takes to boot. i have to boot my laptop on average about once every 6-8 weeks, usually because i get careless and let the battery drain out. i have to reboot my server about once every 4-6 months when i get around to doing major kernel upgrades. it has been at least 10 years since i have had to reinstall an OS I already installed on a machine, whether to upgrade it or fix a broken a system.

Ubuntu handles packages differently (well, APT does) than Solus does. For instance, to install Krita on Ubuntu, you need an additional 192 packages, whereas on Solus you only need an additional 19 packages.
