In this issue, we would like to introduce you to one of the awesome people behind the popular Ubuntu Budgie, Dustin Krysak. Ubuntu Budgie is the new kid on the block in the Ubuntu flavours. The reason we picked Dustin, is because he is so active in the Linux community, this does not mean we are ignoring the other members of the Ubuntu Budgie team, by any means. Dustin is always willing to assist others and keeps a presence on Telegram. | In this issue, we would like to introduce you to one of the awesome people behind the popular Ubuntu Budgie, Dustin Krysak.

- | A: I had been a long-time consumer of open source software, but had never been a contributor. I wanted to change that and give something back. When I was looking for a “home,” I wanted to find a place with a smaller team. I knew I was going to need some mentoring, plus I wanted to be able to actually have an effect on the outcome. The Ubuntu Budgie site had a “help wanted” section, and I basically just started communicating with the team on how to get started. Most people do not realize that you merely need to be willing to give your time. It is harder than you think to get long-term contributors or people that stick around in general. Things change, it is life. :-) | + | A: I had been a long-time consumer of open source software, but had never been a contributor. I wanted to change that and give something back.

A: I think we appeal to the people who would like a modern desktop that is out of the way. Start it up and go type stuff. Not a ton of time or settings to be tweaked to become productive with your computer. The other aspect is just that the desktop looks great out of the box (people like shiny), and we attempt to make it easy through our welcome application to apply additional themes. To sum it up; people who like sane defaults. | A: I think we appeal to the people who would like a modern desktop that is out of the way. Start it up and go type stuff.

A: I think it will endure. It fills that niche of a modern (minimal technical debt), beautiful, system with a great out-of-the-box experience. As for the trends, well, I find it hard to “spot” the patterns. Meaning each desktop seems to have a different design goal and direction. Which is great! It gives the end user many choices to get the flow and experience that they want. But we are an excellent fit for those who want to install and go. | A: I think it will endure.

- | A: We do not participate in the data collection that Ubuntu does with the installer so it is hard to tell. We can monitor downloads, but I feel that is not overly accurate for representation of your user base. Meaning, how many stayed on the system? Did they convert to a full-time user post-test? I watch for growth based on the activity in our own community. I’m more concerned with movement and growth than assigning a number to it. | + | A: We do not participate in the data collection that Ubuntu does with the installer so it is hard to tell.

A: Distro watch is not a useful metric in any way. I don’t think it represents the actual number of installs. I think it points new users in the wrong direction until they begin to understand the community. | A: Distro watch is not a useful metric in any way.

A: Simply being able to help shape the distro and the direction it may move in. And if something is broken or does not work correctly, I can either fix it myself or have access to people who can. Giving back to the overall Linux ecosystem is the largest though. Moving from consumer to contributor was my biggest thing. | A: Simply being able to help shape the distro and the direction it may move in.

- | Ubuntu Budgie desktop is a very smooth implementation of Ubuntu for those who do not like Gnome 3. The Raven menu is easy to access, many standard key combinations are already set up for you. With easy settings to enable flatpack, etc, how could one overlook this distro? Ubuntu Budgie is happy with 2GB of memory, but by adding tabbed browsers, you better have 4GB. If you have not switched, why not try Ubuntu Budgie now? | + | Ubuntu Budgie desktop is a very smooth implementation of Ubuntu for those who do not like Gnome 3.
