The Solus 4.1 operating system has been released as refreshed installation medium for all supported flavors, adding new features, improvements, and updated components.

The second installment in the Solus 4 “Fortitude” series, Solus 4.1 arrives 10 months after the Solus 4.0 release to add support for the Zstandard (zstd) compression standard for the SquashFS images, which makes the installation process a lot faster.

This release also enables ESync support to improve gaming, faster AV1 decoding with FFmpeg 4.2.2, and new networking features with NetworkManager 1.22.4, including WPA3-Personal (SAE) support.
