Everything about the new desktop environment by System76.https://github.com/pop-os/cosmicWhere to get:>Archhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/title/COSMIC>Fedorahttps://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ryanabx/cosmic-epoch/>Nixhttps://github.com/lilyinstarlight/nixos-cosmicDunno if this will or should be a regular thing. I just enjoyed the past threads.
>>101841742I like your maid!
>>101841742From this image it just looks like GNOME with an even uglier UI. I did a quick Google search and I'm thinking it's GNOME with an ugly UI and a few shitty extensions. Why were people hyped about this again?
>>101841781Thanks. I like her her too.>>101841787Yawn.
Tried to install it on a laptop I had laying around before putting it on my daily driver, realized quickly that its wifi controller has no linux drivers anywhere, not just in pop OS. Easy fix though, ordered a well supported replacement $20.Is there a list of keybinds for their tiling behavior? Messed around with a bit, like it, but can't replicate most of the tricks they show in videos.
>>101841787It's for nocoding GNOMEfags who don't like ebussy so they switch to "Cosmic" (GNOME) to make them feel better without having to admit KDE was right.
>>101842386Not sure if there's a fancy web page up yet, but why don't you check options/keybindings? I should probably look into that eventually, given that it's built in already, but don't really see the point outside of tmux either.
is there a fedora atomic image yet? i could rebase to it and check it out.
>>101842687There's a guy working on it.https://github.com/ublue-os/cosmic
>>101841742Can Cosmic be installed on Void Linux?Will it even work? Does it have any systemd dependencies?I couldn't find any reports of it running on Void thus far.
>>101842828thanks, i'll give it a shot on my thinkpad. i assume the silverblue/kinoite variants include their respective desktops in case cosmic breaks?
>>101841742>new>it's just another GNOME reskinPut it into the trash with Mate.
>>101841787>alpha has been officially released for (1) day>OMG IT DOESNT HAVE AS MANY FEATURES AS KDE AND GNOME??!!
>>101841742Can I try it on an iso? I'm not going to install another DE. KDE serves me fine but I want to try it no strings attached.
>>101843069https://system76.com/cosmic
>>101842902i can confirm it worksi already like it better than gnome despite the bugs, fuck you ebussy
>>101841742He should be your wallpaper, also what's so special about cosmic I keep hearing about it but it just looks like GNOME
>>101841742How lightweight is it? I just want a fast and snappy DE. Hope they improve the customizability in the future. I'm sick of minimal flatshit.
>>101843706GNOME gui but without the garbage devs. Useful features gnome doesn't add and no gtk since it's made with iced using rust. Wayland by default too.
>>101841742thanks but I'm using kde plasma 6
>>101843803Based
>>101841742it takes way too long time to compile from source and the aur packages have issues with git lfs
>>101841742why the giant flashy borderswho needs them
>>101844292you can turn them off
>>101841742just trying this this dude popos on a liveiso dont know what to think about it yet>>101841787the destruction of gnome of course
>>101841742does it have dynamic workspaces?
>>101841742how is it?does it run better than gnome?not using javascript should make it 1000 times better
>>101844292Anyone who doesn't disable all effects on a fresh install of any distro is retarded imo.
>>101841742
>>101841742post shork
>>101846084ellen from zenless zone zero
>>101841742>Dunno if this will or should be a regular thing.I don't see why it would. I would think it would work better as a one off threads rather than a general. Besides, seems a bit early on that front as well since it is still in Alpha. Unless the Anon's here are contributing to its development or something, I can't see many talking points right now.
>>101846084pic>>101845757>>101843767Can't really tell on lightweight yet. It's obviously using a lot of GPU acceleration, can't even try on a VM without it, but definitely feels more "snappy" compared to Gnome.>>101844292They're probably catering a bit to their bubble tiling users at the moment, it's basically an oversized active marker. It can be disabled first thing already. I assume if more normies get into it, it'll be disabled by default.
Gave it a try on my laptop, ran into a few bugs but seems to be going in the right direction.I don't think I'll bother switching from sway until 1.0, though.
>>101847440>swayIf you're that deep into proper tiling i doubt you need cosmic anytime soon, unless you're overly hyped over rust default apps as well. Looking at the old gnome+extensions cosmic, it was never more than gimmick tiling to slightly improve workflow and maybe impressing your coworkers.
https://github.com/ublue-os/cosmicAnyone tried this? There's no iso unlike Bluefin and Aurora, so I'm not sure if I should wait.
>>101847543Yeah, no need for me to rush to switch.
>>101844300can you tell which window is selected if you turn it off?
>>101847654not as easily
>>101847622Lurk more.>>101842828>>101842902>>101843251
>>101845621Yes.
>>101841787>Why were people hyped about this again?It's the anti-GNOME. I like it so far. When it goes stable, I will install it on more than just my old Thinkpad.
>>101847849does the active window even matter with tiling on?
>>101843767>How lightweight is it? I just want a fast and snappy DE.This is the fastest DE I have ever used but it is still incomplete.
>>101845757>does it run better than gnome?way better, but it is definitely incomplete and not worth trying on a machine you need until they reach beta. if you have a throwaway desktop or laptop, try it.
>>101841742OP you have to mention this is an ALPHA or you will have retards in here acting like this is a stable DE. Do better, fucker.
>>101847409i think i like maids now, huh
>>101841781kys
>>101847409SHARK SEXO>>101848559>This is the fastest DE I have ever usedYeah I've heard other anon compare it to LXQt in that regard. Seems promising.>but it is still incompleteI'll probably wait a year or two before using it.
>>101848882>Yeah I've heard other anon compare it to LXQt in that regard. Seems promising.It's definitely around that speed yeah. There's a lot of design work that needs to be done and re-done but yeah it looks promising.
Zoomie trolls here are lacking. There are way more obvious targets like>doesn't come with a default image viewer

can confirm, need strong male guidance
Are there any systemd dependencies? I'd like to fuck around on Artix >>101850920I may hate China and Genshin, but ZZZ girls are pretty cute.t. Blue Archive enjoyer

>>101841742>RustI will not use your product
I commend s76 for bringing competition to the GUI space in Linux but I won't use it anytime soon
>>101848757Uhh kyss to you too? The fuck kinda faggotry is this? Fuck off.
>>101855435Why not?
>>101847622you need to install fedora silverblue first. i kinda wish we had coreos isos to start from.
>>101848558why would it not?
i'm the guy running it on an old X201 Thinkpad. it works shockingly well so far. you can tell a lot of stuff isn't quite done yet but it's promising. the app store doesn't even look like it has a sorting mechanism.
>>101856766Well, it is an alpha after all. Right now my biggest annoyance is the lack of basic apps. Sure, I don't have expect them to have a full feature image viewer and media player, but i expected them to ship at least some alternative..
>>101858755yeah i use qt apps from flathub as a standby. the gnome ones absolutely do suck shit. even outside of gnome they don't have minimize/maximize buttons.
>>101858779What image viewer did you choose? I did like eye of gnome for what it is, so I'll probably stick with nomacs.
>>101858849i use gwenview since i already had it installed before i rebased to cosmic. normally i prefer nsxiv, however.
>>101841742o wow another gnome fork
>>101858882o wow did you came up with that one all by yourself?
>>101858868>nsxivWould that even work without shenanigans?
>>101858948i used it on my main desktop running KDE for years, it works. to get it on my fedora atomic laptop i'd have to set up some container for it which i'm too lazy for.
>>101841742Is there any way to turn those hideous borders off? It looks odd.
>>101859734Yes, there is. Lurk more.
>>101856443>you need to install fedora silverblue firstWon't that leave stuff like config files from GNOME in my home folder?
>>101858779>i use qt apps>they don't have minimize/maximize buttonscosmic trannies everyone. looks like it's gonna be a DE for ex win11 toddlers
>>101859809only if you log in>>101859813gnome doesn't have these unless you play with dconf or gnome-tweaks, fuck off.
>>101859833as expected from win11 toddler being physically unable to change settings. maybe just stay on win11?

https://github.com/pop-os/repo-releasehttps://github.com/pop-os/repo-releasehttps://github.com/pop-os/repo-releasethis tells you when you get new updates to the alpha iso
I'm just waiting for this to go stable and then I'll upgrade my PC from Pop_OS 22.04 to 24.04. When I tested the current alpha it was pretty good already. Just needs more time in the oven.
>>101865493>pop-osOk, what does that have to do with cosmic?
>>101841742>requires gnome-shell>requires poopos shell and themeUh, this doesn't sound like a new DE
>>101866951>requires gnome-shell>requires poopos shell and themeIt doesn't.
How are the updoots on Arch? Do you constantly feel small things improving?
>>101866706>I'm just waiting for this to go stable and then I'll upgrade my PC from Pop_OS 22.04 to 24.04. When I tested the current alpha it was pretty good already. Just needs more time in the oven.this is me
>>101866899for people who are using the officially supported distro + DE
>>101866706>Just needs more time in the oven.At day three i'm starting to disagree. For home use it's already enough, given that one will customise their experience anyway.>>101866983>Updoots on FedoraPractically i only noticed minor options moving, but i don't have many things to complain about either. The dock can be easily moved wherever you want(yes, it's not a fucking extension anymore), the active window marker disabled and everything shown in the top bar can be moved or hidden as well. The shots at gnome are more than obvious.
>>101867083Well honestly the only issue I ran into really is that it wouldn't mount my ntfs drives. Otherwise it was actually pretty usable.
>>101866706>>101867022Me from Ubuntu 24.04 to Pop_OS 24.04
>>101841742>>101867083Ok, if it's all that great, where's the catch? It seems a bit ridiculous that a few rust bros locked themselves in their basement for a few years and are now taking on one of the oldest and well funded desktop environment on linux..
>>101867158What's the joke here?
>>101867123Thankfully i don't have any of those anymore. If you used a fresh install did you install the ntfs package? At least on fedora it's not a default anymore.>>101867170Honestly i have no answer for you. Any meme ebussy crawled too much up his ass answer is as good as mine.>>101867178Something about gnome being the big jew or the other way round. Besides best to ignore polfags, cosmic is just a corporate product as gnome.
>>101867083>i don't have many things to complain about either. The dock can be easily moved wherever you wantthe settings pages could be way more intuitive though. they need to redo them after they are done adding all the major features.

>>101867688Be sure to install updates to get fixes for XWayland issues with fullscreen games on NVIDIA graphics drivers.
>>101843767The compositor is faster than sway, with a similar memory requirement. The default applet layout needs about as much memory as KDE and GNOME. But it's definitely much faster than the two.Out of the box, Pop!_OS needs about 700 MB RAM, but will scale with the amount of RAM in the system. They use a higher default value for vm.watermark_scale_factor, so the kernel has a higher memory caching threshold.

So the gaming stuff is kinda making me shy away from using this full time but I like the underlying software quite a bit. How would Ubuntu or Mint do on gaming?
How come i can't change the date and time? I know it's an alpha release but that's a very basic function, there's nothing on the "Region & Language" tab and "Set automacally" doesn't do anything
>>101878497I had to set mine in the terminal.
>>101878523I forgot to the obligatory fresh install update and now that i did it, it worked. But still it should release with such a basic thing out of the box working properly
>>101878497Haven't noticed that one yet. Probably worked good enough on every developer's machine TM.
>>101878452>How would Ubuntu or Mint do on gaming?Look into trying out https://nobaraproject.org
>>101851027this is FACT
I can't install deb packages, when i right click on the deb file the properties option is very basic and it doesn't let me change permissions for it such as "run as program", i can't open it with the store either. Trying sudo apt install [path] says it's an unsupported fileShould i install GDebi?

>>101885801The compositor is written in Rust.
>>101886930Soon, anon
>>101841742not bad, and it seems stable for alpha release.
where is minimize in Firefox?
>>101889851Why is it even considered an early alpha if it works so well?
>>101889909it is kinda barebones still, that's one of the things I can notice right away. also gnome apps work, but they look broken. no wonder, gnome apps look like shit on anything other than gnome. if they want respectable DE they should write their own app suite though
>>101889875It's a bug. If you disable and re-enable the minimize/maximize buttons in the settings, they show up again.
Serpent OS is developing an installer with COSMIC's libcosmic toolkit instead of GTK. Perhaps the first of many to adopt COSMIC as their chosen platform.
i like COSMIC so far but I don't know how to feel about yet another DE entering the scene. and not just DE, but having its own toolkit as well.
>>101887257Then why does it work at all?
>>101845798+++++
>>101890203Because it's written in Rust.
>>101890160>yet another DEAll the previous DEs were just forks of GTK/GNOME and Qt/KDE Plasma, so it's good that finally there's something new.
>>101890160I know how to feel: pretty damn great.It was about time something other than GTK/Qt entered the scene.
>>101890076>Serpent OSWhich init does it use?
>>101841742King!
>>101889909What's working well is really just a compositor and window manager yet. A full DE includes terminal emulator, text editor, image viewer, media player and maybe some kind of office tools of which listed are barely 50% done. That and nignags like the clock is why it's still an alpha.
kek, it seems to struggle with understanding where window edges are in emacs. for example resize arrow shows over the minibuffer area. but those are minor nitpicks. I am not noticing any major issues yet. not a single crash surprisingly
>>101890320people gave power to GNOME/GTK willingly. for example, XFCE used to have their own toolkit, I think it was called something like xforms. no one forced them to switch to GTK
>>101890489And thats why Ebussy and other footfags have the audacity to be incompetent twats that do nothing all day while receiving fuck ton off money. Cosmic has potential to actually dethrone gnome and become a default DE for many distros, not only as a flavor.
>>101847409>GPU accelerationI'm out
>>101890489And now S76 is taking some of it away willingly too.
>>101890575kek, thank you for reminding me of this gold
>>101890438The clock has already been fixed.
>>101890960Yeah, like imagine being such a conceited buffoon like him.
>>101890960Ironically, they aren't particularly wrong on this one. Cosmic's current plan for accessibility is to use the new accessibility framework developed by a gnome dev.
>>101891174so it will be gnome under the hood?
>no indication of how many app instances/windows are openpls fix
>>101841742Source for the wallpaper?
explicit sync?
>>101891221No, Newton is not a GNOME project. It's an AccessKit project, which is being sponsored by GNOME.>>101891174Matt Campbell is not a gnome dev. From their bio: "Software developer, formerly at Microsoft, now leader of the AccessKit open-source project (https://accesskit.dev/)"The COSMIC team has been actively working on implementing accessibility in iced, smithay, and COSMIC. Newton is a piece of the puzzle for enabling accessibility in Wayland environments.
Will you keep using COSMIC or are you just testing it and then switching back to GNOME and KDE Plasma until a stable release?
>>101893214I'm on Windows right now, but I plan to keep booting on my COSMIC partition every couple days to see how things are going.
>>101890438yeah i noticed the actual desktop part is somewhat stable and good. it's the rest that kinda sucks for now.it's about time we got a proper tiling/floating hybrid compositor. i guess you could rice hyprland to do it too but that's ass.
>>101841787Made in Rust. Make of that what you will
Yes, do say I say!
>>101893214i am keeping the live USB with persistent storage. it shows promise. i might even swap Ubuntu Unity for this if it improves further (Unity is kinda falling apart and is being maintained by literally 1 person)
>>101893214I mostly use Xfce but I think I will switch to Cosmic when it goes stable. This is way better than Xfce for me.
>>101891711See above. I already posted them.>>101893214Right now i run it fulltime at home. As much as that says for the four days? were on right now.
>>101886575Functionlet here. How would you do this with a monadic pattern while still logging useful errors and not being even uglier?
modern and snappy, a very rare combinationfor this reason i will be using it
>>101841742thanks for the goon sauce OP
>>101894441>I mostly use Xfce but I think I will switch to Cosmic when it goes stable. This is way better than Xfce for me.I am using Xubuntu but this PopOS alpha iso is pretty good so far. I might convert if they can meet all my needs.
>>101896535What needs would an xfeces user have? Your whole "DE" is barely more than the shell.
>>101841742Is there an easy way to install COSMIC alongside another desktop environment?
>>101897047yes
>>101897047doas pacman -S cosmic-session-git
looks good

>>101898539>I took one look at the volume slider and won't be bothering with this alpha shit for at least 2 yearsStill looks good for the first ever public release. No desktop looks the same after the first alpha.
>>101898784>>101898814>>101898835haha faggot furry got rektlove to see it.
>>101898239give it 1 year or 2 and it will be better than most of the mature DEs available.

Anyone using it on a laptop? How's the battery life? Do touchpad gestures use three fingers like GNOME or four like Plasma, and are they customizable?
>>101904154I messed around for a couple minutes on my ThinkPad, I'm pretty sure you can remap gestures. I know by default they use four fingers.
>you define keyboard shortcuts by typing them instead of pressing the keysinteredasting. does any other DE does it like this?
I'll stay with Linux Mint and Cinnamon as my Desktop Environment.
>>101906532About every tiling window manager does, which is probably what this is aimed at as well.
>>101906532It's only a temporary thing.
Does it have something like Ark to archive and extract files?
>>101907313It has like 4 most basic apps that do the bare minimum. It's actually an alpha, I don't know what's with this insane shilling, retards should wait until it reaches beta at least.
>>101907607It can't get better unless people actually use it outside of virtual machines and report bugs.
>>101907665Except autists aren't promoting it as something everyone needs to test, they're promoting it as a DE everyone should be using right now. Knowing how some retards can't handle even kde or gnome they really, REALLY should not be using comic as it is right now.
>>101907724stfu ebussy, cosmic mogs gnome
>>101907724No one here is doing this though. Go back to twatter or whatever room you're hearing you're promoter voices from.
>>101841742can it run quake3? can it run all the apps for x11?can it run homm?can it run wine?can it run under x11?>b-but well, then i'm not interested.
>>101907221i wish it stays, i like it
>>101909473>can it run quake3?>can it run homm?>can it run wine?yeah? why wouldn't it?
>>101908190it kinda does already in terms of usability
>>101909515so, 3 out of 5?wayland shills love when shit doesnt work. wayland shills love it when all things that worked break.on top of that, they probably love systemd. its amazing really.
>>101909473Sorry, it doesn't like faggots. It's not for you.
>>101912497i'm as straight as an oak balk.i've been using init + xorg since 20 years. changed distros one timeyou are obviously distrohopping which is infinitely more gay
>>101912753Just fuck off when being called out. You're still a faggot.
>>101907724>they're promoting it as a DE everyone should be using right now.nobody is saying that, you dumb spazwe all said its an alpha not to be used on a machine you need.
>>101912845>just fuck off when being called outare you this new?what a faggot tranny, go suck some niggertrannycock. lmao wtf.don't you know i'm here forever? you cant just make me disappear. lmao
>>101912922It is implied because you made a thread about it
>>101912976Wrong person, but yeah, maybe could've put an obvious "alpha" somewhere in OP. Then again you should be seeing that three times over by whatever installation option you take.I'll keep it in mind if there'll be another thread after.
>>101841742>gnome but slightly differentWhat's the point?
>>101913510>slightly differentare you retarded? why do you even post? you're so dumb and don't even know what you're talking about.
>>101845798Retard.
>>101913470Haven't changed it yet. Liking it as well.>>101913510No gnome devs is probably biggest reason on 4chan. Besides that it's wayland only, memory safe and configurable. Their whole stick is basically a DE for the more average user rather than the locked down office experience from RHEL/ubuntu with default gnome.
>>101913522What's different about it? Everything I see is just gnome
>>101913821>>101913510Oh, i forgot my small personal favourite: a first party side/bottom panel. It is very comfy.

I like it. I do need more features though.
>>101841742>>101841787>>every replyJust use MATE and maybe the sheer volume of users abandoning GNOME and avoiding Cosmic will get MATE development back in the limelight. I'm saying old GNOME now known as MATE was and is a great DE. I'm not saying shit about any other mainstream DE. Simply saying that MATE is not getting the development attention that it deserves (and at some point it could be re-introduced as GNOME 4, The Original or some shit).
I see these DE fanboy and hater threads and after 3 almost 4 years daily driving Linux machines, I'm very seriously thinking I made a giant mistake. This is the "Community" I'm part of AND supposed to rely for support?
>>101917905It won't come back, anon.
>>101917905MATE is dead, anon. They fucked up by not taking it to the level and using South American names for their packages.
https://youtu.be/xdhayXZ3khkOne of the COSMIC devs (mmstick) said "What you see today was developed in 2 years. It's not going to take 2 years to finish the remaining features." in a comment.
Dropping Xfce for this when it goes beta. It is way smoother.
>>101923162Nice. Hopefully we get a full release in a year.
>>101923200>Nice. Hopefully we get a full release in a year.The beta won't be out until Spring or Summer 2025 by the looks of things. There's a lot of stuff that they need to add and refine before they can code freeze and fix all the major bugs. I don't expect Cosmic to leave beta until April 2026 when Ubuntu 26.04 LTS comes out just in time for another Pop!OS cycle. So yeah, it will take 20 months instead of 24.

https://github.com/pop-os/coreSeems to have been abandoned.
Just saw pic rel on twitter>tiling and stackingThe fuck is that for in a workflow? If just stack my programme then why bother with workspaces at all? Seems a lot like wasted resources to me.
>>101926692I do something similar in my workflow. Like, sometimes I have 3 Android Studio instances open in the exact same position and cmd-tab between them to get to the one I want.Keeping them in separate workspaces makes no sense for me, and I usually have 10 of them.
GNOME or KDE until COSMIC gets a stable release?
