  1. The Pop Os looks like Voyager Os, the only difference being that Voyager has been finished for a long time and is way ahead in development.
    I would lean towards Voyager at the moment.

  2. Love it, but spent two days trying to get it to install and now I'm just giving up. Installer keeps failing when trying to configure bootloader πŸ™
    Might just buy another drive to do it as a clean install, rather than trying to manually set up partitions for install.

  3. thank you for going through everything in detail. you were clear in your descriptions and explanations.
    i also really love customiseability so it was fun to get a preview of all that. nice to see you are excited too πŸ™‚
    24:58 oh!! yes i would love to see an in-depth video about all the customisability
    great video!!

  4. Terminal should have a new tab option like KDE terminal Konsole has next to file edit view open a new tab, instead of clicking on file first to open a new tab. You can use a short cut, but I don't like using short cuts. I don't like light themes, but I must say the Cosmic light mode looks nice. It's not so bright. I like that you can change the roundness of corners too. Square is my favorite because I don't like rounded corners. And you can remove the dock and use the top panel to make it look like Dash to panel.

  5. It still has some way to go before it becomes usable as a daily driver but I have to say I like the stacked windows feature; looks like it was inspired by BeOS/Haiku

  6. I installed this on a monster workstation I'm building out of server gear. Other than a glitch with the Nvidia iso installer not telling me progress, it installed fine.

  7. ma maaaaan, I watched all minutes and waiting for the game performance benchmark since they said having well optimzed nvidia integration and native wayland, but maybe next video. Btw, good review bro, I believe this desktop will be a game changer in the future, and come on man please fire some proton games.

  8. How I did it πŸ˜‚in 2005 just randomly costomizable with help in a sitweb and terminal it so much fun playing with Linux software it so free you can costomizable with your heart ❀️ remember me of the moebuntu anime costume

  9. Wait, so I would need a pretty decent video card to run this? Yeah, it looks interesting, but if that's a requirement, I'm out. I need to be able to disable every single special video effect. I don't want fancy transitions, animations, nothing like that. For me it's distracting and makes it harder for me to do my work. And of course I'm old now, and kinda stuck in my old school Slackware ways. Again, looks pretty cool, but it remains to be seen if I could see myself using it. I do like the "Krunner" style menu thing, which is the only part of KDE that I ever want or like.

  10. Honestly im pretty excited! Its really solid.
    What i want to know:
    1. Window snapping?
    2. Wayland/x11 support (nvidia/amd)
    3. Games (do they work properly without scaling stuttering or moving glitches)

  11. If System 76 releases a laptop with the latest Ryzen AI chip, I am totally getting it and trying out Cosmic. Considering Rust is the only system level programming language I'm interested in dabbling in, I'd love to learn how to create apps for it.

  12. it's a great addition but I think Linux ecosystem needs to improve and complete Wayland and provide better support for hidpi display and compatibility from app. You can still see a lot of blurry apps on fractional scaling and many display server features are not complete yet. Of course also saying goodbye to xorg has to arrive it just splits more the ecosystem

  13. This is absolutely so wonderful. User friendly, customizable, and quick and snappy compared to GNOME. That App Store is terrible! So glad they fixed it here! I love that transparent top bar function. No more gnome tweaks. No more GNOME! finally! I love customization but don’t go too crazy like ricing everything. I just like to pick a few silly colors and then I never change it again.

    THANK YOU SYSTEM76 AND POPOS TEAM! And thank you Savynick! Great video! Cant wait when a functional for comes out!

  14. Still a long way to go. Another year of development at least. They have learnt the lessons from gnome so hopefully they can accelerate to the finished line much faster.

  15. this comment is just for me to practice.

    so on so forth.(11:14)
    but you also have these sub categories side.(11:15)
    which is an incredible thing.(12:21)
    everything's super fluid.(13:15)
    I can't understate how wonderful this experience is.(15:28)
    there's something goofy on.(18:03)
    that's what comes up.(18:48)
    takes everything back default.(20:26)
    I really do like all the different settings that we can play with.(21:31)
    switch these around however you want.(23:48)
