Ive been running cosmic for the last couple of weeks and im very happy with it already. I think the future of linux desktops has never looked this bright.
I was very excited for COSMIC but I have kind of moved on the Niri now. I am not sure it will lure me back.
That said, I have been using COSMIC Term and COSMIC Panel with Niri. So they still have their hooks in me.
I have an old laptop running it since a year ago. It’s getting there. If you use it long enough, you will still regularly stumble on little things that are nicer to use on gnome or kde but it’s getting there. I plan on switching my primary desktop to it for the 26.04 release
I’ve been excited for it for a while as well. Tried out the alpha and it was overall pretty good but since the kernel was a bit older I couldn’t run it with my hardware. Also gaming didn’t work very well but I see it might have been fixed for the up coming beta.
Can’t wait to switch to it again. Loved the built in customization and layout.
It works quite well for gaming, I play some counterstrike with no issues.
Good to know. Have they updated the kernel from 6.8 yet?
I need at least 6.12 for my Ethernet to work.
I run cosmos on arch linux so im on the latest kernel. For Ubuntu I dont know, guess we will see what they will pick for release.
I assume he means PooOS!, which is the distro shipped by System76.
