Preface: I am loving Cosmic and I'm very impressed at how feature-ful and stable it feels at such an early stage. It is my primary daily driver and I suspect that will be true for a long time.
Also, I should really try to contribute for some of these...
Showstoppers
- no gamma ramp (redshift, "night light") (planned as part of bigger color story)
- no lock on idle
Almost showstoppers
- Cosmic doesn't "reconfigure" QT, or broadcast light/dark switch?
- Chrome ... acts a bit weird WRT to dark/light theme...?
Bugs
- The window gap makes it hard to get the mouse from an applet trigger to its body, without it closing from lack of focus
- mitigation: this is caused by focus-follow-mouse with too low of a delay. set delay to 50ms and this is usable.
- Four-finger swipes, repeated quickly, causes visual distortions when repeated on the last workspace
- Sticky floating windows are not resizable
- When floating a previously-tiled window, it doesn't auto-resize to minimal size like in sway
Wishlist (realistic?):
- Hide titlebars when tiling (alacritty, firefox popped out windows, etc)
- Scratchpad
- Static workspaces and window-workspace assignments
- I strongly dislike the new Desktop thing. I don't want it on at all.
Wishlist (future):
- Volume applet could be a lot better, show individual streams vol controls, etc.
- 2D workspaces (one "column" for personal workspaces; another for work workspaces)
- workspaces with single window are auto-maximized
- true "fullscreen" suppoort that covers bar
- workspaces with MUTLIPLE windows cannot have maximized windows, only fullscreen
