Seeing this gain actual traction leaves me feeling pretty exhausted but undeniably focused. It is validating to know I am not the only one who recognizes the work that has been put in.

Honestly he deserves it just for the work he put into Solus alone. The man is a machine.

What Ikey has created, and in the tempo that he has is amazing. Solus has insane stability and smoothness, which clearly shows quality that I have yet to see in other distro's.

I can only imagine that this proposal will irritate some... to whom I suggest: Ponder why people are supporting this idea. Most of us have tried many Distros... so it is fair to wonder why other Distros do not do things that Ikey does.

On a long enough timeline, Ikey could patch cancer out of RL.
