Description:
Version 24.04 LTS of the Ubuntu-based Pop!_OS distribution has
been released with the COSMIC Desktop Environment: Today is special not only in that it's the culmination of over
three years of work, but even more so in that System76 has built a
complete desktop environment for the open source community. We're
proud of this contribution to the open source ecosystem. COSMIC is
built on the ethos that the best open source projects enable people to
not only use them, but to build with them. COSMIC is modular and
composable. It's the flagship experience for Pop!_OS in its own way,
and can be adapted by anyone that wants to build their own unique user experience for Linux. In addition to the COSMIC desktop environment, Pop!_OS is now
available for Arm computers with the 24.04 LTS release, and the
distribution has added hybrid graphics support for better battery
life. LWN covered an
alpha version of COSMIC in August 2024.
