As a Pop!_OS user for years, I love System76 care and attention to details! And the theming of the COSMIC DE is awesome. Being a Rust based project, I expect great performance. Keep up the good work, team! And thank you for your ambitious project to have a new DE for us! ❤
@rocksquared5 ай бұрын
Making the DE as un-opinionated and consistent as possible is simply the best idea. Top attention to detail matters, and you are in the right mindset. Like many, I can't wait to see the v1.0. PS: iZotope RX, unfortunately closed source and not available for Linux, could really help you with fixing bad background noise such as this recording.
@Batwam04 ай бұрын
I think that the un-opinionated part was a bit of a nod to the Gnome team 😂
@mmstick4 ай бұрын
@@Batwam0 Yes, it is a jab at GNOME's inflexible design ethos. Their Adwaita ("One and Only") philosophy is deeply flawed. Having suffered from having to work around a lot of their bad design choices, we do not want to inflict the same onto our users and downstreams. Users and distributions alike should be able to configure and theme COSMIC however they like, and it should be easy to do so, with the most common needs built into the desktop by default.

Been following this ambitious project since early development. I'm still clutching my Xfce (X11) pearls and COSMIC is where I intend to finally make the jump into modernity, along with new hardware.
@theunknownkadath4 ай бұрын
I think the most valuable thing about all this is that Cosmic is being built with Linux users in mind -- creators, builders, programmers, developers, scientists. I often felt uncertain why the "average desktop user / low tech person" was seemingly the target audience of major linux DEs (respectfully). I look forward to see how this all goes.
@creamrisesup5 ай бұрын
Cosmic is on 🔥. I would love for System76 to kind of polish the Cosmic DE experience by integrating some nuggets such as rounded corners and smooth animations on auto tilling just like Hyprland.
@meow-is-edible4 ай бұрын
Agreed, I'm just testing Cosmic right now, currently their animations are too minimal, just like old Android with animations set to 0.5x.

Yeah. I use GNOME and Xfce as my desktops on various systems, and neither is exactly thrilling, but they're both directionally where I want them to be. If COSMIC manages to pull off a nice stable system that runs well on my hardware, I will probably switch to it on my distro of choice and never look back.

This is necessary for the consistency of application design. The nav bar toggle button is on the left side where the nav bar panel is presented. The context drawers slide out from the right side of the application. Reversing window controls would significantly increase complexity of the layout system. Or at least look out of place to have window controls taking up space in front of the nav bar toggle.

I really hope they improve the light theme. It's nice that they let you customize it, but it's best to ship with something good by default. I know there are contrast concerns, but the black text on white just doesn't work well with my eyes. Grey background works better for me. Everything else sounds good

It looks good. Is the panel the same as the dock, just configured differently? I would like to just have a panel with an application switcher, start menu, virtual desktop switcher and notifications.

Yes, the dock is just a second panel. The dock can be disabled. You could have more than two panels, but the settings application is only designed to aid with configuring two panels.

It requires Vulkan hardware acceleration for good performance, so you need to configure your VM in a way that it can get real hardware acceleration. Without Vulkan support, applications will use the LLVMPipe Vulkan software renderer, which is significantly slower.

Meh, Linux has lover usability than Win/Mac, the DE is not the problem, it's just a marketing move. MacOs/ windows have: multiuser/multigroup file/folder ownership, easy sharing of files, good integration with Cloud storage providers(including offline access), all support fingerprint sensors. MacOs has: file tags, smartfolders, consistent UI Windows has: network folder sync (including offline(cached) file access), Credentials app provides cool UI for the keychain, file attributes (hidden files), device manager, digital signed installation files. Personally I do not need an another DE.
