Just received yesterdays updates from the Solus repositories.
... and with Gnome update comes the infamous broke half o your extensions in use. Typical Gnome.
Luckily it was only cosmetic extensions that broke and not eg. Dash to Dock which would render Gnome DE completely useless.
So I have to wait for the maintainers of those extensions to update to current Gnome 50.
This is the main problem with Gnome (Extension compatibility) and KDE Plasma (Widget compatibility).
Why do these two DE's keep moving the parameters? Quite a lot of these add-ons are not all created with a financial incentive but by devs who want to bring useful items not included in the core DE. Then the DE devs keep upping the anti putting the onus on the Extension and Widget writers to update their code. I can see why lightweight alternatives like xfce are more popular than the heavyweights because of this conundrum.
Why can't KDE stick at 5.27.x for example? Why the constant push for higher numbers? Is it the ever updating kernel that is responsible for this? No, I don't think so. My PCLOS Debian based on Debian 12 is running Liquorix 6.19-14 and using Plasma 5.27.
I also find it extremely annoying that application creators are aiming solely at Gnome and systemd operating systems and Ubuntu (ProtonVPN, Winboat, Brailleblaster).
I really like the liquorix kernel now machine is running perfect. and so is Zorin..solved the screen qlitching in Wayland was the live wallpaper so i installed varity and it changes all the new reg wallpapers
It would be good if Zorin ditched the pre-pubescent Wayland for XLibre, built on longstanding xorg.
That is Progression and Development.
Or regression and breakage, depending on how each user views it! 
Exactly 
% true!
For many, Zorin OS 18, is a disaster. I'm still on Zorin OS 16.3, and it works so good. If my memory is not failing me again, it was @wsmather who tried OS 18, and bigger number was not better, and after high praise of OS 16 from me, he decided to try it. And yes, even though the OS is outdated support wise, even he admitted it was better for him.
Just cause something has a higher number, doesn't always mean its better. In some cases, regression, problems, means its worse. Zorin OS 16 is the, its not broken, so don't fix it saying. Sometimes, its the lower number thats better.
