Basically title, with System76 moving from gnome to their new rust built COSMIC environment what are your thoughts?

    I’m really in support of everything that System76 is doing. Outside of Framework I think they’re one of the more interesting enthusiast projects. I think what makes me particularly excited for Cosmic is that it will be under the GPL3 license, and that it will use GTK.

      Likewise! Funny enough, my daily driver is a Framework laptop with Pop!_OS.

          I’ve implemented the fingerprint tweak among others, but what is this power tweak you speak of? \⁠(⁠◎⁠o⁠◎⁠)↗

      It will not be using GTK for first party applets and applications. COSMIC is being built with libcosmic, which is a cosmic-themed widget library built on top of iced. The design team also has a collaboration with Slint so that Slint can be used to make applications with the same look and feel as libcosmic.
