Btw, afaiac I'd love to swap KDE out for Cosmic. But the window rules (or current absence of it) is preventing me from doing it. Like a Kwin for Cosmic, that would be cool. But what the Cosmic team has achieved so far is really impressive. I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the default DE for Ubuntu.

Many edits in applications, flatpaks and QoL, read up on it in the readme.md. Or just give it a go!

I just upgraded to #popos #cosmic beta, and it mostly just worked! It's also the first DE I've used in a long time that felt like a big step forward - when they get the remaining bugs ironed out I think it'll be great!

Universe is another word for Cosmos, hence Universix as the name for the bootc Cosmic image I've cooked today. And it worked out very well. More on that tomorrow. Back home an updated MangoWC on Slackware waited for me! Great diversions from a shiite day at the races.

I want to be ready for that Cosmic launch. And I got triggered by some toots. So I put cosmix-saigon back on the work laptop. Based on the nixbook project (thnks @… !) and nixos unstable (yep, living on the edge again). Solid. And ready!

After some great conversations yesterday I took myself up on my own challenge 🤣
After cosmix-saigon (using the unstable channel of NixOS, bcs of the most updated Cosmic DE) I just revitalized asterix-saigon.
Based on the nixbook project (thnks @… ) and NixOS Stable this gives you that rock solid stability and the latest and greatest KDE Pla…
