Of course. In fact, I hope it becomes enough popular and stable such that it is offered as an option in the installation of Debian stable. As a non-programmer that is my measure of maturity of the project. However, last I had checked screen sharing doesn't work in Wayland outside of GNOME. I hope COSMIC/Smithay people are able to fix that. I need to use Zoom and Google Meet quite a lot.
Vesktop is a modded client for Discord for installing plugins and themes that has been out for quite a while now and uses Vencord. It is not a Discord client built/created specifically for COSMIC. Check the comments on the thread you showed. Also, in addition to being theme-able to match COSMIC, it can also be themed extensively to look however you like with built-in support for writing custom CSS if you're using it on some other DE.
I see a lot of people in your comments, probably just regular users who aren't programmers, who really don't understand what the deal is with Rust. Maybe you would consider making a video about it and its improvements over other systems languages.
Looking forward to COSMIC, though I've been enjoying the pre-alpha versions already. My impression of the COSMIC devs is that they're people who do real work on their computers and they're building a DE for other people who do real work on their computers. I trust them and believe something great will be the inevitable result.
I’m currently using hyprland, which sets the bar for DEs very high. But I’m somewhat interested in cosmic with its tiling support and ease of use, this could make me switch as I’m getting sick of configuring.
Yeah it's funny how hyprland sets the bar so high for DE while not even being a DE. And the said truth is that there is not a single other wayland compositor which even comes close to the amount of feature, usability and beatifulness of hyprland. Honestly if vaxry didn't start the project i wouldn't be using a tiling window manager, and i would probably be using kde or cosmic right now. But yeah, hyprland does set the bar very fucking high lol
I hope it will eventually support a panel/menu layout more similar to default KDE/Windows (if it doesn't already). That's what I'm used to and I never really felt at home with layouts of Gnome/iOS.
Fortunately, the Cosmic Panel is customizable. You can move it to the bottom of the screen and adjust where and what applets are located in the Panel now!
I am more exciting for the change in philosophy that tiling window managers need to minimalist. Nah man. I find configuring bar, notifications, etc far more painful than the wm itself. Hoping for cosmic to succeed.
As long as they don't decide to just throw a minimalistic set of shortcuts bar/menu in the middle of the screen (cuz it's "modern" to do so!) and let the user customize 100% of the UI, all will be fine
If you're talking about the cosmic release, the alpha is planned to release late july. As for pop os, I doubt they would make a new release for pop os containing an alpha stage desktop environment, So not for the foreseeable future
I just hope cosmic won't end up recreating kde. They have to be careful not to add all the features, or else it will be bloated and a buggy nightmare to maintain.
Are you planning on trying out Cosmic?
No I think its highly overrated. To me it looks ugly and outdated but hey ho.
dang, well to each their own
@@SavvyNik Don't get me wrong I see the appeal but I prefer stock Gnome and bleeding edge.
Yes, 100%, rust based, Wayland, native tiling support. Need to at least try it.

Finally we have the insider. Time to implement an xz-esque backdoor into Cosmic.
Not on my watch
@@mmstick your commitment to community is insane man, it is definitely seen with love, keep it up
Haha, busted.
@@mmstick this guy right here will answer literally any question about cosmic on reddit, its insane. Keep doing what you're doing, it's looking great!
Nah, XZ had performance problems. I want something that runs smooth 😂
I will move to cosmic once it matures. I can’t wait to switch 💪🏼

vesktop also let u screensharing with sound using wayland, I use it to stream movies with friends

right hyprland is cool like it a lot with gruvbox theme , but i want to use cosmic too im hyped for release.
no way, Vesktop mentioned!
Is it intended to run on Wayland? Nonetheless, for me it is close to a point whereby I can use it full-time (software dev.)
qual a data de lançamento ou teste do alpha, beta do cosmic? estou entusiasmado tambem hehehe
Hi SavvyNik, do you know what is the ideal memory consumption of Pop OS Cosmic?
I hope it will eventually support a panel/menu layout more similar to default KDE/Windows (if it doesn't already). That's what I'm used to and I never really felt at home with layouts of Gnome/iOS.

@@Shubadus that's amazing!
@@Shubadus That's great to hear. I'll eventually try Cosmic for sure then.

That's already in the settings. You can put the bar/panel wherever you want.
👍!
when is be new pop os release

@@user-ks1oh2wx6o thanks for your reply ,
when pop os 24 will release ?
@@user-ks1oh2wx6oWhat do you think the COSMIC Alpha ISO is based on? It's the Pop!_OS 24.04 Alpha.
I just hope cosmic won't end up recreating kde. They have to be careful not to add all the features, or else it will be bloated and a buggy nightmare to maintain.
Why do you keep saying 1676 instead of 1776 or am I missing something?
@Silverblue-se6iy Thanks for the clarification!
lol i use css similar to that iin vesktop
if it is published this decade- not bevore
It's only been in development for 2 years, and it's releasing this year.
@@mmstick beta is releasing this year?
@@al-Interpol It is releasing this year
Ohhhh men, why Rust? Zig or C++.
Why not? Nobody uses Zig, and C++ is responsible for 70% of security vulnerabilities. Zig also isn't memory safe, so it's not much better than C++
@@mmstickrust literally causes many people to quit rust just from the community alone, using rust makes this a ticking timebomb
@@uuu12343False. Low effort troll. Try again.
What's wrong with rust? Sorry if I'm ignorant, I only know bash, nix and python.
@@mmstick i would love read a blog post about why system76 chose rust vs other lang, just curious a question
