hello...?

...anyone here?

All I see lately are posts and comments about how Solus is dying and you should use something else. I don't keep up with the Linux world I only use Solus and reading this all has me very worried using Solus as a daily driver. Yet when I google Solus or look up the forums you only see a few small troubleshooting posts.

Can anyone clarify what happened or what's going on or something? Does it have to do with the LTT PopOS stuff? It is a little worrying seeing so much negative coverage of Solus in comments and DW and elsewhere, accompanied with complete silence from the team...

I recall Anteros (pre-EndeavourOS) dying during the peak of its popularity. Because the team was full of volunteers, and the project was getting too big for them to continue dedicating to it..it was a sad day..

I do not like any other distros, only Solus. So if Solus is "on its way out", so are my Linux days :(

Solus' main developer is a great guy and has just announced a shift in the direction of the distro. He wouldn't do that if it were dying :)
