Today we released a new pair of spins - Fedora COSMIC and Fedora COSMIC Atomic!
Thank you to the folks at @COSMIC_desktop and @system76 for helping @ryanabx and the Fedora community make this happen. :)

If you step back and take a #cosmic view of 'us' we are just temporary occupants on the surface of a big lump of matter amongst quadrillions of other lumps.
We are very small beer in the broader scheme of things.
@midtsveen Not a gamer, but I’ve been quite happy with #UltramarineLinux, a Fedora variant with easier defaults and added repos. It runs great on my pile of 2015 and older Mac & PC laptops, and my 2014 iMac.
Lately I’ve been toying with #TuxedoOS (Debian) on my iMac, and I’m surprised at the boost in speed! Tuxedo doesn’t work on all of my old laptops (expected), but once KDE 6 arrives on a Debian distro, I’m definitely trying it out (if #COSMIC doesn’t lure me away first).
Alas, my experiment with @tuxedocomputers Tuxedo OS on Hardcase, my Early 2014 MacBook Air, has run into hardware issues.
I was able to get the old Broadcom Wi-Fi working with broadcom-wl, but it looks like the Apple keyboard drivers may have been removed from Tuxedo’s kernel, as couldn’t get the function keys working at all with the usual fnmode method.
So it’s back to #UltramarineLinux while I wait for @system76 to finish #COSMIC.
Being an alpha version, I'm reading a lot of problems for some people using #Cosmic DE, but I have to say, for use on my laptop which is mostly used for some browsing and such, it's really sweet! It seems to be nicer on the battery as well. Not too unimportant for a laptop.
#COSMIC is not even out of alpha and there's lots of #accessibility features already available!
There's more work to be done, for sure, but this is a very nice to see!
