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.

Practically finished setting up Universix-Saigon, my Cosmic bootc image based on a solid Bluefin base. It's live on github at thesaigoneer - universix-saigon.
Many edits in applications, flatpaks and QoL, read up on it in the readme.md. Or just give it a go!

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.

Yep, like this I'm getting nowhere. Another splendid rabbithole. I need to focus!
Did you know PostmarketOS has a desktop image as well? Not just for a phone, but a full-fledged DE? Neither did I. It's based on Alpine, and one image lets you choose between the likes of Gnome, KDE, Xfce, Cosmic. And that KDE is very sleek and up to date!
Gonna give that a longer go. Thanks @…
