    Yeah but why not do their own thing though? Specially with the caliber of engineers they have there. They write a full desktop environment from scratch in a year or so? That’s incredible.

    Sorry you got downvoted for having an opinion, that’s not me doing it.

      Yeah it’s fine, there are a ton of pop_os fanboys out there, I’m just stating a fact. System76 complained about the gnome 40 changes over and over and the gnome devs ignored them, their only option was to make their own DE or use something else and they clearly didn’t want to be at the mercy of another group of developers. I’m excited for cosmic as a true original DE in the style of gnome, but at the same time it’s going to be rough around the edges because it’s new.

        Yeah I expect it to be alpha quality for at least six months but they will get there. To me, a new DE in the linux space is much more exciting than what Apple it doing.

        I was going through their new features here: https://www.apple.com/macos/sonoma/

        Honestly, it’s just bling bling for screen savers and desktop widgets and video conferencing. It feels like a patch rather than a full release. And don’t get me started on windows, I dont think they care anymore about their OS.
