I really, really hope Budgie 11 doesn't have any reliance on systemd.

I'm looking forward to trying out version 11 of the Budgie Desktop (w/ qt6 and kde frameworks base / integration).

You know, I use Gnome today, with a bunch of Extensions.
But when Budgie 11 launches, I'm jumping ship, on the condition that their config does not mix hardware state with system settings, like XFCE does.
(Things like screen resolution should be in it's own file)

(I thought I boosted this seven weeks ago. Mind playing tricks on me. It's one of a few things on my ridiculously long reading list that I actually do keep revisiting. I don't know what to think. I'm reading it in overlapping chunks.)

"Solus is an unusually stable, unusually simple to use rolling release distribution. Everything is pretty straight forward, everything works (at the lower levels), everything installed and updated smoothly."
