Solus is a unique, independent Linux-based operating system developed in Ireland. Unlike other Linux distributions, Solus is not based on any existing operating system like Debian or OpenSUSE, giving it a distinct set of features and optimizations. It offers users a variety of desktop environments, including Budgie, GNOME, KDE Plasma, and MATE.
KDE Plasma, a highly customizable desktop, is considered a great alternative to GNOME, which is the most widely used Linux desktop environment. KDE Plasma is a bit heavy but consumes fewer resources than GNOME. MATE, on the other hand, is a fork of GNOME and is often appreciated for its traditional desktop layout.
Solus can be used as a workstation operating system and is also available for use directly from a flash drive or CD, without the need for installation. It supports the x86_64 architecture and boasts a strong community that ensures ample resources on forums and websites for help and development.
