#COSMICDE

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

My modified #PopOS is having a risky window system flaw where when a new window opens, sometimes the one underneath it retains focus... I've almost copy-pasted some stuff into a chat when it was supposed to go somewhere else.
My setup is really glitchy. I want to switch to something that works better, but I have so much config that might get lost... I think I'll hold out until #COSMICDE . At least until it works on #Nvidia + #Wayland !

System76 annuncia COSMIC Alpha 7

System76 ha annunciato il rilascio di COSMIC Alpha 7, la nuova versione in sviluppo del nuovo desktop environment scritto in Rust per Pop_OS! e tutte le distro che vorranno adottarlo (recentemente è stata rilasciata anche una Spin di Fedora 42 con COSMIC).

COSMIC Desktop Alpha 7 Adds More New Features

System76 has just announced the 7th alpha release of its Rust-based COSMIC desktop environment. As with earlier alphas, the focus remains on adding the features planned for inclusion in its first stable release (dubbed Epoch 1). It’s always worth tempering expectations: COSMIC’s first release won’t feature-match the newest versions of decades-old desktop environments. Nor will COSMIC’s fledgling native core apps, also built in Rust and making an Iced-based toolkit, out-gun rivals. Yet, despite the proverbial mountain System76’s set out to climb by building their own DE from scratch (using toolkits and technologies that aren’t super common), they’re making excellent pace :sys_more_orange:

ha, typical. Somehow the new #System76 desktop environment #cosmicde just clicked in the past week, after on and off trying out it and window tiling and stacking. Now that I have a flow of managing my windows this way, today's Cosmic updates break the Workspaces part of the panel 😐

Too much editions of #GarudaLinux ? Never enough. There is a new one coming with the brand new Cosmic desktop developed by @system76.

La distro #Linux Garuda, basée sur #ArchLinux, propose de nombreuses éditions venant avec un DE différent. Il y en a une nouvelle équipée du nouveau bureau #CosmicDE

@killyourfm I'm really enjoying this mixtape. 🎵
Too bad I don't have my SONY Walkman (cassette player) anymore, that would have made the experience even better.

Cosmic Media Player and COSMIC DE Alpha 6 are also very enjoyable!

Thanks for sharing ^^

I decided to try and use #cosmicde for daily work for a bit and see how I get on. The first thing I had to work around was SSH key management but that wasn't too big of an issue. Not sure if I'll stick with using workspaces, though. It's a bit of a hassle to manage so many different ways to switch between applications.
