What’s the source, and why didn’t they announce this themselves on their blog like usual ?

Cool. I’ve been looking forward to this for a while.

Interesting. I’m not that knowledgeable about Linux desktop environments (despite running popos on my desktop and mint on an old laptop). I feel like gnome has a lot of tweaks and widget-y things. Is that kind of ecosystem going to crop up here? I didn’t tweak much- just turned off edge tiling and added a big date/time widget to the desktop.

Also what’s the upgrade path going to look like? I just installed with the defaults so /home isn’t on its own partition.

Please have the ability to swap between audio devices on the same sound card. This was my only major holdback last time I trialled cosmic

tried cosmic a while back, absolutely loved the way it looked and could be customized but gestures didnt work/wasnt implemented yet (?) so it was a pain to switch to using keyboard shortcuts again. if the beta includes the gestures features id love to give it a try again

Nice! Can’t wait to finally give it a try.

Just installed the alpha it is good, working so far. Looks cool for sure.
