From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I want to use COSMIC but its design sucks, I prefer KDE (and on the Rust side: slint).
I want to use GNOME as what it does works great, but it lacks a whole list of features I use.
I want to use Haruna or many other KDE apps, but GNOME/GTK apps are often better and I dont care.
I want to use Gapless as it is the only music player on Linux that seems to not suck? But it lacks many features.
Does COSMIC's design suck or is it in pre-alpha?
No that is the design they want. If something is ready, then their design.
