Budgie main dev leaves Solus

[Nailz]

Budgie is very versatile when it comes to panel, dock, and applet arrangements.It will be interesting to see what the default will be.

What GTK theme is that?

Also, welcome @GeckoLinux! have been meaning to try out gecko for a while now, it seems we are getting an influx of new people from everywhere due to this.

Fluent purple is the theme. It was just coincidence for me, I was trying disros over the holidays and chose Endeavour Budgie because wanted to learn more about arch based distributions. I use Solus Plasma also , but had no Idea Josh left.

Welcome, @JoshStrobl Budgie is awesome, thank you. I have been using it for about 3 years now. But using it on Manjaro felt like a slightly different experience than how Solus looked and felt.

@JoshStrobl

The Budgie will be stock from mainline, so you shouldn’t feel like you are getting a different and possibly worse experience by using Endeavour.

So I am stoked about this. Cheers!

@JoshStrobl

I will be tinkering with building a wlroots-based compositor

Well Take a look at wayfire
It has everything you need what it lacks is desktop feel.

And i think budgie panel and raven sidebar will be what suite it

You can consider trying out wayfire and I am sure you won’t waste your time on efl
