Budgie 10.10-preview.1 is (as the name implies) a preview release and features unfinished components, but still excited to ship this!

Also don't think about checking what Budgie Display Services / Configurator are written in. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The end to the saga of #Budgie 10.10 development is near! We just put out Budgie 10.10-preview.1, intended for packagers (e.g. Fedora and Ubuntu) to start shipping in preparation for their releases next year. ๐ŸŽ‰

While we are hard at work wrapping up features & functionality for Budgie 10.10 (so we can FINALLY move on to 11), we have just put out a Budgie 10.9.3 release to align with changes in GNOME 49.x.

Release notes available at github.com/BuddiesOfBud...

Coming to a distro near you!

ICYMI: Fedora Budgie 42 and Fedora Budgie Atomic 42 will ship with Discover. It is very speedy and plays well with the atomic image (in that it doesn't have silverblue hardcoded as the rpm-ostree rebase image and result in users being surprised by a GNOME desktop after they upgrade!) ๐Ÿ˜

Recently landed an MR from team member David (fossfreedom) that makes it so that those of us internally dogfooding the Wayland experience of Budgie 10 no longer need to stare at blank screens or write our own scripts to fire off swaybg!

Still plenty of work to do of course :)
