Considering I’m on the Budgie team and currently on Endeavour (as of yesterday) it would make sense for me to be here too, wouldn’t it? Hi all!

@serebit and @JoshStrobl to the forums. I admit, I’ve never been a huge fan of Budgie on Arch, and thought the Solus implementation was better. It’s a very intuitive DE, and I can very much see the value especially for new to Linux folks.

Anyway. Welcome. I’m sure if you need testers (I like testing things) there’s a number of us here. Good luck in wherever/however your project lands.

Solus budgie is great and the implementation on EndeavourOS is close. It is also one of my preferred desktops.

I don’t necessarily agree, but that’s not a bad thing. It’s what keeps us all going and developing.

Of course the Solus implementation is better. I’m just saying it’s pretty good here. :man_shrugging:

My goal right now is to get the Arch (and Endeavour by extension) implementation of Budgie up to par with the Solus one. As Josh mentioned, we’d left the upstream config out of date because everyone actively developing Budgie was on Solus—now that the Budgie team is spread out across multiple distributions, we have more focus on the upstream experience being good for everyone. Next release is a big step towards that goal.

I have used Solus Budgie for a short while before. Very nice experience but I missed Pacman (and AUR) so badly that I ran back to Arch-BTW-Linux :sweat_smile:

Welcome aboard @JoshStrobl and @serebit !

PS- Not sure even you could say: I use Solus, btw :wink: :sweat_smile:
