@deedend I can't answer about the future of the project since ain't part of the #cosmic maintainers, but I can tell about the present:

> If it [systemd] is needed, it's a bug. The cosmic-session has conditional code to handle environments without systemd.
@starr I haven't use Gnome in a while, but I can tell Mint's Cinnamon is pretty good
@starr you peak my curiosity about #pop_os, so this weekend I did my exploration to #alpinelinux + #cosmic

has been great until now
I have no words to express how good is the combo of #alpine #linux and #cosmic desktop (the one from System76).
This is a mind blowing experience; it feels so great to use a _modern_ environment, even if running on an "old" machine.
For context: I've been using #ArchLinux + #KDE Plasma for almost 7 years without interruption. This is not my first rodeo with Linux, I've been here since 1998-ish.
@esparta Love this! Have been a COSMIC admirer from the sidelines for a while.
@nshki well, rumors are true. #cosmic is great, ain't perfect and it takes a little time to get used to some things as the resizing of windows, but besides that cosmic have anything to ask to the other desktops.
For me it was an experimental situation. I was testing #alpinelinux for a replacement of #archlinux in my computers - I had it planned since at least 2023. I asked myself "why not? Let's try #cosmic", it seems it will replace #kde.

Imagine the world if GNOME had niri like window management.
@thibaultamartin
I wonder whrn you can switch your compositor in #COSMIC, maybe in gnome you can do aswell one day?
Dream come true yesterday!
I got to talk to a packed room of normal (non technical people) at the local library about how important it is to upcycle computers, and how Linux can save the world in this respect.
Thanks to all the people who showed up, supported, donated laptops and listened. We even gave away 9 free laptops at the event.
Library said it was the most well attended event they've had! So will be many more of these in the future. :)
