      Installing Gecko Linux Rolling Budgie on my laptop.

      I'm thinking about moving off of that today 🙂 It's good, but not perfect. I'm looking for "just the right" desktop for me.

      Also funny enough, my actual gecko ran in front of my Gecko desktop a few minutes ago.

      What would be considered perfect for you?

            I've never used Budgie desktop, thought I would give it a try for awhile.

            Budgie is slick, I like it a lot. For some reason, my Gecko / Budgie combination has a few integration issues. I think it is on the Gecko side, though. Budgie on Solus is not likely like that.

            Solus is also a rolling release and it supports snap/snapd and flatpak which I like too.

              If the gecko was bigger and I didn't have to worry about stepping on him.

                But it doesn't support a lot of apps at all, which I don't like. I have to get Sodium to work on it, and it depends on underlying components that Solus doesn't support. The format and the desktop are great. The lack of broad support is what is bad.

                    I really like Korora, but it has memory issues, especially with Firefox and is lagging way behind Fedora. Mint is pretty nice, but slow to release and based on Ubuntu LTS. Neither is a big deal, but not ideal, either. I'm going to give straight Fedora 26 a try, see what that does for me.

                      I really like Korora also, but the Firefox issues are annoying as hell, and not a word about updating to 26 yet is also a waste.

                      When I get spare time, I will probably wipe and go straight Fedora 26 and then add the Cinnamon desktop.

                        Why they've not mentioned Korora 16 at all since May is odd. I looked this morning to see if the latest release was around the corner and the total silence on that point is what is leading me to look at other options. I had been hoping to try going back to Korora to see if the FF issue was fixed.

                          I might try out Deepin, as well. I like that a lot.

                            Thankfully, because I keep all of my files on GIT and NextCloud, moving between desktops is trivial.

                              I prefer Fedora desktop over Korora now. I don't think I have Korora on anything anymore.

                                  Why don't you use Chrome instead? I've found it works best on Fedora based distros anyways.

                                    Are you logged in using Wayland or Xorg? I feel that it makes a difference when using Chrome or Firefox.

                                        Chrome can just go piss up a rope.

                                        The last straw for me on that was talking away my ability to easily see SSL certificate information.

                                        Fuck them.

                                          Both. But even when I give it more thought, I still find Chrome runs way better on both. (fedora based)

                                            Thankfully, because I keep all of my files on GIT and NextCloud, moving between desktops is trivial.

                                            My desktop is not fully like that yet. But for my laptop, I can nuke it at will. I think I will do it this weekend at some point.

                                            I need to get my desktop stabilized so that I can do this because I want to redo it and setup a dual boot so I can at least have the option of gaming.
