Arcanum icon theme has been updated to version 2.0. Cosmic DE is now supported!

It's available on codeberg:

It's that time of the year again: I'm trying #cosmicde #cosmicdeskop

Let's see how it goes this time but so far it's pretty nice.

If @system76 ‘s #cosmicde can be themed, why am I not finding a #BlueCurve theme for it? What is wrong with the world?!

As someone that regularly tests the Cosmic desktop, I have to agree, it's still just beta software and shouldn't be advertised as stable, even though the 1.0 version has been released.

I do like Cosmic, it has great potential, but misleading users just hurts the reputation of Cosmic, #popos and #system76

I almost decided to upgrade my 22.04 to #PopOS 24.04...was so close to clicking the button...
But then I learned the #cosmicDe
does not support drawing tablets...
Which is essentially the only thing I use my laptop for nowadays. Oops.
I hope it gets implemented soon, it is kind of a deal breaker, and I don't feel like having to reinstall and rice gnome as the first thing after an upgrade
The fun part of use Cosmic DE, which has many missing features, is seeing those features popping up after an update.

I just noticed that #CosmicDE screenshots now save to a screenshots directory in the pictures directory rather than just in pictures.

A small but good change. I like it as it keeps the directory clean.
