Like this sort of content? Leaving a like really helps the channel! So does following me on Mastodon: fosstodon.org/@thelinuxcast

I tried three times posting some really helpful info about Budgie but for some reason none of it is "Sticking".

@lonercheki Год назад

Budgie is amogus version of GNOME , i mean ; imposter gnome xD

@user-tc9tb3a Год назад

I think this comment is kinda sus

@peppe540 Год назад

Surprised you didn't try the Fedora Budgie spin; it is where Josh Strobl (main dev) is right now. And Solus has been revived by Josh and ikey, so whoever likes that: here's a lot happening in Budgie. Agree with your view it is a 'livable' Gnome. Development on Wayland version is ongoing as well.

@adalas293 5 месяцев назад

Will I live to see the time when Linux developers finally make settings options for selecting the number of scrolling lines on the mouse wheel ?!! Windows '98 ALREADY HAD THIS .

@TheDrunkenAlcoholic Год назад

The menu is called the "Brisk" menu, it was originally written from scratch by Ikey, Josh and ikey both left solus and you are right, budgie is now its own project, but recently both ikey and josh have returned to Solus and are about to drop new iso for all the flavours, mostly just for updates, but now have a plan to actualyl make progress with Solus by adding new features and immutable base system like all the other cool kids have these days. So if they stick with it, Solus could be back to being the most innovative distro again, as it was back 5 years ago or so

@TheLinuxCast Год назад

That was the name I was looking for. Thank you

@natsukirei2016 Год назад

they already released 4.4 with kernel 6.3 and alot of support newer AMD hardware and stuff, the problem with Solus OS is whilst budgie was updated, we went almost 2 years with no communication, updates, and that burned quite a few lovers of Solus OS. I personally loved Solus, i loved the out of the box experience, and eopkg, and what they were doing, and while i understand its 2 people running a project the lengthy silence broke trust with users who would main this distro, i just hope they get some serious backing that will keep them alive and reliable

@phonewithoutquestion80 Год назад

Budgie and Cinnamon are really where Gnome 3 should have been. You couldn't twist my arm to use gnome before at least version 42. Glad Budgie seems to be going somewhere now

@folksurvival Год назад

Yes that's the way Gnome 3 should have gone, if anything. The way they went was with a silly jumbo touch screen smartphone/tablet type UI that isn't suitable for desktop computing use.

@emjaycee Год назад

I quite like the Ultramarine version of Budgie myself. But yeah, I also understand your concerns re ongoing directions and stability.

@keylowmike85 Год назад

Great work! I knew that Budgie existed, but I've never used it.

@LouigiVerona Год назад

Thank you for the review. I wasn't aware of it and as a user of Xubuntu I can relate to their design decisions.

@BG101UK Год назад

11:05 I'd be interested to see what options the screenshot tool gives with more than one display connected? It's something I use quite a lot in KDE.

@Skelterbane69 Год назад

I kinda wanna try the panel,but idk if it works on wayland Not much info on it, out there

@FrasSmith Год назад

Surprised you didn't take a look at "Window Shuffler" which is the Budgie take on tiling.

@Germoney2000 Год назад

Video was way too short... he missed a lot of stuff.

@ethanendures Год назад

I like budgie because its so simple

@tomas-wi8dy Год назад

I'm a happy budgie user. (on Spiral Linux)

@johanb.7869 Год назад

100th like😊 Better late than never, congrats on the 30.000 subs😎 I hate it when the theme is not consistent. With QT on KDE it's much better. I'm a mister perfect so when not consistent, I won't use it. That's the main reason why I left Xfce and Gnome and went with KDE.

@LovecraftianGodsKiller Год назад

One of the primary things keeping me on KDE is how well it supports theming Qt and GTK applications. Qt apps are a given, but GTK, I love how you just install a GTK theme, select said GTK in the KDE system settings, hit apply and *BAM* all your GTK apps are now themed. I really wish GNOME and other distros based on GTK would do what KDE does, for GTK, but for Qt apps. And yes, Kvantum does exist but it is not consistent. Dolphin, my favorite file manager, does not get themed correctly when using Kvantum

@sbedivere6937 Год назад

I tried budgie on endeavour os and i got this weird behavior. When raven slides in and out the shadow of raven is not in sync. The shadow is showing in it's final position even if raven is still in it's slide animation. Does anyone know what could cause this?

@sbedivere6937 Год назад

Complety uninstalling GNOME and after that installing Budgie did the trick

@natsukirei2016 Год назад

Budgie is okay, but i much prefer just using gnome with extensions to get the same look

@ZealotBrandon 11 месяцев назад

I try to follow news on budgie. This is my understanding of the road to eleven: first is they had to unify the developement across distros. I'm not for sure how successful that was. But now they are keeping the GTK version usable with a few upgrades and they are progressing with the Enlightenment libraries.

@milohoffman274 Год назад

If you want a very stripped down Windows-like experience then its as good as any of the other ones that provide that. It is what it is.

@TrustJesusToday Год назад

Budgie and Cinnamon are straightforward, comfortable desktop environments. Although I am playing around with KDE on a iMac, Budgie and Cinnamon are on my daily desktop and notebook PCs. 10 months later...Fedora and Hyprland with Budgie as an alternative. Who'd a thunk it?

@kici5777 9 месяцев назад

Yes

@htx80nerd 4 месяца назад

I've actually never used Budgie and dont think I've even seen it before.

@vehementham Год назад

I've never used budgie. Somehow.

@folksurvival Год назад

OK.

Год назад

I don't know why people should choose budgie at this current state. Other DE give more functionality, stability like cinnamon, xfce or mate. If you choose gnome or kde plasma than you even got wayland.

@folksurvival Год назад

I agree that Cinnamon, xfce and Mate are the best options but Budgie is still much nicer to use than Plasma and GNOME.

@mylinuxforwork Год назад

For me, Budgie looks a kind of outdated. When I would switch away from Qtile to a desktop environment, I would probably choose Gnome or KDE and customize it. Sounds like a video idea for an upcoming recording.

@Germoney2000 Год назад

If you're gonna do a video about Budgie, I would recommed Ubuntu Budgie. It just looks better. Have been using it for almost 4 years now on my main PC. I also have it installed on a TUXEDO Laptop that respects the Dark-setting 100%. I use the App-Menu which is much better than the Budgie-Menu (in my opinion). I have a Dock at the bottom (Plank) kind of like Apple... and you can even add a Global Menu up top, if you like. Its all in the settings... just a click away.

@elyzsabethahne2116 Месяц назад

Ubuntu Budgie is my preferred choice of distro on my desktop computer. I love it!

@schemage2210 Год назад

To be fair, theming/modifying Gnome is very bifurcated as you put it. System settings go to the system control panel. Desktop extensions and theming, go to gnome tweaks. Budgie shows its origins clearly.

@RedBearAK Год назад

I have never been impressed by Budgie. The most recent Ubuntu Budgie in a Boxes VM crashes out of the whole desktop when I try to open any settings app. Xubuntu had a similar problem, but it was whenever I deleted a file in the file manager. All the other Ubuntu flavors and a over dozen other Linux distros of all types had no such issues.

@John7No Год назад

budgie used to be what gnome should have been. unfortunately it did not grow well. I was very enthusiastic back then as well, but it kinda seems to be in a limbo state.

@spudhandle 8 месяцев назад

Gnome can easily be this, 15 minutes of playing with extensions.....It's not needed.

@John7No 8 месяцев назад

@@spudhandle problem with Gnome nowadays is that it is buggy, the extensions you hope they will get updated soon enough to work , and the theming is horrible. QT is no longer supported, and even between the different versions of gtk the theming does not apply in most cases

@sirbumblefuck 7 месяцев назад

It looks half baked

@darthkielbasa Год назад

16:57 kinda disappointed with that #ramble session

@zenmaster24 Год назад

not even gonna watch the video - yes it is, but only if you want a lighter gnome been using it full time for close to 6 years

@Germoney2000 Год назад

Been using Ubuntu Budgie for 4 years now on my main PC. Have also tried Manjyro, KDE, Mint, Ubuntu, Lite, etc.. on my Laptop. KDE is like an Ice-Cream Parlor with 1000 flavours.... who needs it? Sticking with U-Budgie thank you very much.

@Aoitori365 Год назад

cinnamon is better

@omar.eskandar Год назад

gnome is the best

@damnhatesyou Год назад

The stuff they added on top of gnome made it worse 😅

@folksurvival Год назад

No they definitely made it better.

I wouldn't say cinnamon is more stable than budgie, however it is a good alternative to budgie, I prefer budgie over cinnamon but I am currently using cinnamon DE(on arch) until Solus drop their new iso's
