Since this is a distribution built upon Pisi linux

As far as i know, Solus is not built upon Pisi Linux, even if it uses a forked version of the PiSi package manager, maintained as "eopkg".

Hi yes you are right but again as highlighted I have referenced it directly from Wikipedia and mentioned so. I have no way other to know that. On a different note there are few things I like about Solus though especially the KDE Neon version. Its developer friendly, nice UI and dark theme is something I like more. Also its UI Package manager is simple though eopkg is one more package manager to learn.

I'd say that Solus is amazing: after a few years using the same exact first installation with basically zero issues, I can assert it is pretty good rolling distro.
