The only desktop i care about on the only distro I care to use.Mint 22.3 was supposed to come our right before Christmas, but not only is it delayed, but who knows if Cosmic will even be added until after the package base switches to 26.04.I'm so fucking sick of each 'organization' clinging to their dysfunctional garbage, and I haven't recompiled Cosmic myself for at least three alpha updates because I just want it native already.No I won't use Pop because it has conflicts with applications that are supposed to just work on Ubuntu, unlike Mint.
>>107816516Why not use use Pop OS? It uses Ubuntu base like Mint. What is the difference?
>>107816547Certain packages for local AI that are built to Ubuntu work on Mint but don't on Pop.
>>107816575>Certain packages for local AI that are built to Ubuntu work on Mint but don't on Pop.Bro just use containers.
>>107816516>COSMIC on Mint when?Why?
>>107816671I don't use Python. Python is part of the problem.
>>107816748Maybe because I like Mint and don't like Pop, but Cinnamon is still stuck on X11 and Gnome and KDE both suck.
>>107816811Containers are Go and Rust.>>107817261What's wrong with Cinnamon. That said COSMIC looks pretty fricken nice.
>>107816547Pop_OS is still incomplete imo and should've delayed it's stable release by another 6 months.>Half of the basic settings like cursor customization aren't in the settings window.>No calendar, calculator, clock app with alarms>The window setting for default applications any has 9 file types, so no GUI option for changing libreoffice as the default, or any other file type.>Some applications are slightly transparent and shows parts of the wallpaper when it should be a solid color.>Adding network drives is a pain in the ass, especially when you connect a NAS directly into the computer. Refuses to connect with smb, defaults to afp. Also, no thumbnails when browsing a network drive on cosmic files.>Can barely load any webpages, or do any internet related task when downloading any file. (I have 1gb/s down and up)>Application icons will sometime disappear entirely.>You cannot change the order of applications in the Application LibraryI could list much more. That said, I'd rather continue with the constant pain of using pop os then touch gnome or continue to use windows 11. Pic related should summarize it's first "stable" release
>>107817666See you get it. I would rather have Cosmic than Gnome or KrashDE, and I want a Wayland session instead of Cinnamon. Cosmic fits all that, so even with it's issues, I would much rather use Cosmic than anything else. Like I said, I'm still running a self compiled Cosmic from 4 alphas ago because I can't be bothered to manually update. I just want it in a repo already.
>>107816516Mint will never support anything that isn't 20 years old ewaste, their own desktop is still stuck on gtk3
