Been playing with Solus Linux recently. I like that things like installing Blender also pulls in AMD rocm clr and friends and gets Cycles support working without any real futzing around.
The Solus installer doesn't give a lot of filesystem options, err, perhaps more fairly, options that I like. No zfs and simple btrfs. I converted the root disk into a btrfs raid1 mirror after the fact but it would be cool if that was possible in the installer. Maybe I missed it. I can live with btrfs, I guess. Ha.
Running the Plasma spin (for now?). Will take a hard look at Qt based Budgie 11 when it comes out.
Very nice, polished distro. Thinking about putting it on my main box since I've got btrfs retroactive mirroring figured out. First time using (i.e. trusting) btrfs so maybe I should let some more water go under Solus' keel before going 'all in'.
Too bad Alpine doesn't have the same level of rocm support. I get it. It is what it is.
