    Weird to compare it to Windows when you could compare it to Compiz from the same era.

    But how lickable is it? I always wanted to lick aero and aqua.

      100% lickable. Don’t let your dreams be dreams.

    I dig it. I know it’ll kill performance a bit but on beefier machines it probably won’t be noticable.

    I am just not sold on COSMIC yet. It has me stuck on an older version of Pop!_OS. They should have given current users the option to stay on the old DE until COSMIC is out of beta.

    I immediately thought legibility would be screwed, but then I saw the sliders that control blur and transparency. It could work.

    Definitely not for me, but I can see some people liking this.
