Damn this is exciting, anyone tested yet and/or know if the HDR support they promised ages ago is functional?
- According to the video posted by Brodie, HDR is still a work in progress... unfortunately.
  From my personal experience, I would say that COSMIC is very much an alpha, meaning it is missing a lot of little things and requires a bit more polish for the average user. That is not to take away what they have done so far or where they are going, but it's not really ready to be daily driven (depending on your needs of course).
A Fedora spin is planned, right?
- Similarly, there's been talk of a Fedora COSMIC spin, which is showing promising signs.
  Yep!
  
  Depending on performance, I may have to try this out. I used to enjoy pop os before gnome seemed to cause so many performance issues for me. Since then I have been on fedora with KDE, which has been remarkably stable for me.
