System76’s COSMIC desktop now requires contributors to certify that pull requests contain no LLM-generated content. The new template also adds a Developer Certificate of Origin.
I tried cosmic for a long time (yr+), but it always seemed a little unstable. Maybe my hardware, but mint is running just fine
I had the same experience with cosmic. It was prone to crashes. I really like the idea of combining gnome with i3wm/hyprland though. I currently have one box using gnome with a tiling shell extension, but the issue there is extensions not being well supported between gnome versions.
I wouldn’t be opposed to retrying cosmic now. It’s been a few years.
Have you tried out O-tiling? It’s a fork of PopShell. I’ve been contributing some minor bugfixes. It’s been working very well on GNOME 50.
No I haven’t, but I think I’ll give that shot. Thanks for the heads up.
Is anyone really uses Cosmic? In my experience, they somehow managed to create a sloppy DE even without AI
It’s pretty decent st this point. Imagine Ubuntu but a bit snappier. Still some isolated issues with certain games, but that’s it.
