Yes this is the biggest downside to Solus, scarcity of packages in it's repo

@GNUxeava @mattheus @strawberryfieldsforever
Yes I now build everything from source (Even though the package maybe available from Snap or Flatpak). Though building from source in Solus is also a pain in the ass and needs alot of bug fixing. I find Solus a very good beginner friendly Linux but the package repo tells another story.

@mur2501 @mattheus @strawberryfieldsforever if you want everything in your repo you should be using an arch based distro

@GNUxeava @mattheus @strawberryfieldsforever
Ahh no I don't really have the urge to have everything in my repo. I can build all the essential things myself. I was saying this cause Solus is a very good linux for new comers from Windows but having a limited repo could be a big hurdle for them.
