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.

a cool and simple idea that is still missing for cosmic is an emoji selector
check cosmic-utils to make sure you're not recreating a project that already exists.
edit: there is actually a archived emoji selector project. Also there are more projects listed here
KDE Connect
I have that on my pop os cosmic? I've only used it for texting but it's worked fine for me
Cool
really missing a gui for setting file associations in 2026?
Doesn't cosmic files already support this feature?
Right-click -> Show details -> Open with
I found this completely maddening when I had a folder full of random videos with various codecs. I had a video player installed that could handle all of them but half of them would open in one video player, a few in another and the rest tried to open in a web browser and failed.
Damn, I dont even know how to do this without KDE XD
Even rox-filer from 1999 had an easy way to do this!
Could you potentially port Hexchat to Cosmic?
Is there a slide down terminal like guake yet?
Only thing bothering me on the cosmic desktop is really the fact that the app menu doesn't have a shadow behind its window. So white menu on white window on the back, you can't see where one window starts and where the other ends. A patch for that would be great, to be honest.
I usually don’t mind using apps made for another DE as long as their UIs are minimal enough for my taste
however, while I was using COSMIC I felt like it really needed a GUI Log Viewer, it’s the kind of thing that sound clearly tailored for the user base COSMIC aims to achieve
GNOME one is nice, but libcosmic apps handle COSMIC tiling better
Lol KDE has this included like a normal desktop
But yes a good clipboard manager please
Not really an app, but a way to easily display HEIC pictures, even in preview mode like with Gnome Sushi.
I've not tried it in a while, do they have infinite horizontal tiling?
