Customizing COSMIC: Theming and Applications - eviltoast

Our new, not yet released Rust-based desktop environment for Pop!_OS and other Linux distros is filling out with some essential systems that cater the DE to both users and developers alike. Customization is one of our main focuses for COSMIC, and was a huge focus for us in August, too.

    I put trying out pop!_os on my list long time ago but never committed to it. Maybe finally this weekend I will replace ubuntu with pop os.

    The cosmic environment looks very promising. Hope it won’t take too long.

      I’m very excited for COSMIC, but I’ll probably wait until 2024 before giving it a spin. Parts of it already look good, but it will take some time to give it the polish it needs for a good professional work environment experience.

        I can’t wait personally and will install it as soon as I can :) If it has some severe flaws, I just log out and log into Gnome or Plasma instead. It’s so simple.

          Yes, it’s good enough to do many normal things with. And like you said, if you get stuck you can log out and into another DE. Logging out can be done from the top panel menu, the Launcher or using loginctl from a TTY if necessary.

      Pop OS is awesome. You should like it a lot. Even the way it looks by default is much better then Ubuntu for sure.
