minus-squareAndrewZabar@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down2·4 months agoI have a few machines running Pop. It’s exceptionally good IMO. It’s like an extremely refined Ubuntu. It’s one of my fav distros.
minus-squareRogue@feddit.uklinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-24 months agoIs that your experience with the OS or cosmic?
minus-squareJestzer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·4 months agoI use Pop!_OS on 2 machines daily with KDE Plasma and am happy with it. I use KDE Plasma because COSMIC is too GNOME-y for me. The only thing I liked better in COSMIC was the fractional scaling- that was way better than the options I have in KDE.
minus-squareyak@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoYes, I agree. Pop!_OS gets a lot of hate for some reason, but it’s actually a really, really good distro. I was asking about COSMIC though, since I’m really looking forward to try it!

It has no relation with GNOME
Ok so I need to learn more about it. Thanks.
