The choice to ship with a beta version of the new DE is interesting. Is it that stable now and will there be a clear upgrade path to the final release?

I'm tempted to grab the beta myself and just go for it now...

Edit: fuck it, I just upgraded my install. Not like I do much important on my computer anyways. This is really nice, almost no pain from the upgrade and other than a couple of menus staying open when I click off of them it's been running just fine. Now to abuse it...

No it is not lol

I have no idea of the experiences of new users. The biggest issue is that PopOS has no KDE Plasma spin, so users can either use GNOME or their thing

I will give the desktop another try. Their apps are all very minimal. Cosmic files has network shares though which is nice!

I installed it in a VM to get the repo files as I found no better way. Now I use some cosmic apps on Debian GNOME
