Applets appear in the wrong place on panel on startup

Lots of threads on this issue

Long time no see : last icons in top panel change position

When icons go wandering it is usually because you have uninstalled an applet that the layout you are using depends upon. When this happens you don’t really have a choice other than to reinstall the missing applets and then reset the panel. nohup budgie-panel --reset --replace & For any layout - don’t uninstall the key applets - you don’t need them on the panel - but you still need to have them installed.

Funnily enough in recent days upstream had a pull request that could fix this issue permanently.

Do you want to help test this? I can create a test PPA with the proposed fix in.
