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.
No, it was a small dev team and it died out. Stick to distros that are established and have been around for awhile. You’ll see a lot of small hobby distros that’ll disappear over night. For an easy beginner rolling release distro, I’d suggest openSUSE rolling. They are an established company and aren’t going anywhere. Their releases are very stable and have a very easy to use GUI installer and updater in the distro. It’s general use as well, not a lot extra besides the desktop environment, tools, browser, etc. Seems exactly what you’re looking for and is all out of the box.
