Launched in mid-September, the GNOME 3.34 desktop environment has only been available for a few GNU/Linux distributions as upgrading from a previous release looks to be a rigorous and hard process for OS vendors. Solus 4 users are now among the first to use GNOME 3.34 on their personal computers. Also today, Solus 4 users are getting the latest Budgie 10.5.1 desktop environment, which introduces various bug fixes to improve Budgie Menu artifacting, notifications, as well as window raise performance, the Raven notification center, IconTasklist, authentication dialogs, and more.
