Old members keeping up

True, but one of the former moderators on the old forum, sadly no longer with us, told about the tale of the Solus developer who plaguerised a wallpaper and when said moderator confronted him about it he admitted he had amended the wallpaper but gave no indication as to the original work of art which goes against the grain of Free Software, IP content - always acknowledge the source!

Still learning here, what does IP mean ?

I know its a diffrent meaning of the ip adress

Intellectual Property - under GPL (General Public Licence) you can modify anything so long as you acknowledge the originator of the code/graphic that you have modified - also known as Copy Left cf. copyright - the latter preventing you to do anything to the original code/graphic.
So put another way, like when Mr Richard Millhouse Nixon fell foul of Watergate the T-shirts came out with his face on it stating "Would you buy a second hand car from this man?" The same might also apply to the original Solus Dev!

There is also a Ubuntu Budgie.

Oops, you got me.
I have no idea. I just used Ubuntu Budgie installer.
Of course you can test it yourself and report back here :male_detective:

On Zorin OS, the most effective way to install the Budgie Desktop Environment would be:

sudo apt install ubuntu-budgie-desktop

Just start typing a keyword in the icon search box.
If there is anything that matches, you will see it :face_with_monocle:

Your idea talking about another distribution on one topic? That could be more clear move all that subject?

Honestly, I cannot tell which tangent deviated from where at this point.:wink:
Any suggestions on which posts should be moved?
