@garuda @linux @mxlinux

oh yeah! I really like it. I think it just auto-created a new workspace for me, when i attempted to tile .. from vert to horizontal placement to see the full terminal command line
(probably super + down then down again (or up))

but, it just made a new workspace for the window. unexpected, but i like it. it was a perfect compromise / option for the tiled placement, IMO.

This works for me!

I really like the Tiling options/ interface. Done and done. simple and functional. i may be home!?

as one who spends much time also with an #MXLinux env, @mxlinux y'all out to check out COSMIC.

EDIT: the "Dock" type bar at left, does AUto-close and typically not present. but always there for the screenshot, unless move the window "in front" of it, then it does collapse. cool.
💃

Trying out the cosmic desktop and whew it’s pretty nice for alpha software. I’ve only had time to mess with the tiling and do some basic configuration, but it’s already such an ideal blend between a tiling window manager and traditional desktop environment. I’ll have to do some testing on gaming and odd business cases (zoom screensharing is about the extent of that actually) but I can get used to this fasho

wow cosmic lockscreen got caps lock indicator

My modified #PopOS is having a risky window system flaw where when a new window opens, sometimes the one underneath it retains focus... I've almost copy-pasted some stuff into a chat when it was supposed to go somewhere else.
My setup is really glitchy. I want to switch to something that works better, but I have so much config that might get lost... I think I'll hold out until #COSMICDE . At least until it works on #Nvidia + #Wayland !
