Yeah, I've begun to come around to that thinking as well. I'm curious to see what S76 has for their Cosmic DE that's written in Rust. I imagine I'll stick with that, though if that doesn't pan out well, I'd likely consider switching to KDE Plasma as my primary DE for my gaming/work PC.
We'll see if Cosmic DE is good enough to dethrone KDE/GNOME. My hopes are not high that S76 can do it better, but I'd like to be surprised.
Based on early views of it, I think it'll certainly give Gnome a run for it's money. If nothing else, it's helping to flesh out a Rust-based GUI toolkit for the rest of us. Iced is gonna be a lot more powerful in the end, whether their DE succeeds or fails.
