Solus Linux Loses Active Status on DistroWatch
Solus is a fully-fledged, independent rolling release Linux distribution targeted at desktop users. The project was created by Ikey Doherty, with the initial Solus 1.0 release in 2015, giving users a modern, easy-to-use Linux distribution suitable for beginners and experienced users alike.
He left the project in 2018, having spent the last year focusing on a new one, Serpent OS, which has yet to see a stable release. The next big blow for the project came in early 2022, when Joshua Strobl, lead for the Solus, officially quit.
As we previously informed you, the project’s website, Dev Tracker, and Forum disappeared from the Internet in the middle of January this year. It was unavailable for more than a month. This was owing to technical issues, which a single person supposedly handled – Beatrice Meyers, Technical Lead for the project.
