Tonight I am about to install endless os for my non technical partner. Do you think that is a good idea? Would you do the same?

    PopOS is currently developing their own spin on a immutable OS, but that’s still a long way from shipping to users. I’m curious, if other distros broke, why would it be different with current PopOS?

      Did not know this. Immutable Ubuntu plus flatpack sounds awesome. Not sure what to think about their plans to fork cosmic from GNOME.

        I’m really looking forward to their implementation of tiling. If they manage to design a desktop which stays mostly out of the way while delivering 1st class tiling I’ll give it a shot. Gnome does have extensions, but they just don’t feel right to me (buggy etc), unlike what the likes of sway and hyprland deliver.

        It would’ve been great if they contributed to Gnome instead, but there was some bad blood between them iirc. And it’s open whether it’ll be another Unity and how well other distros implement it.
