So the 31st TWIS (This Week in Solus) newsletter is here to inform Solus users that their Linux kernel-based operating system is now officially embracing the rolling release model, which means that what you’re using right now will be supported forever and ever, or at least until something breaks and you need to reinstall. As usual, we had a quick chat with Solus founder and lead developer Ikey Doherty, who reveals the fact that Solus has gone full rolling release because it better suits their engineering practices of delivering fast updates to users.
