### Cosmic's 1st Alpha Release is Here

>The Cosmic desktop environment is a new DE brought to us by System76

System76's long awaited Cosmic desktop environment is finally here in it's first Alpha release.

If you want to try out Cosmic, running on the PopOS! distribution, you can grab a copy of the disk image 👉 [here](https://blog.system76.com/post/cosmic-alpha-released-heres-what-people-are-saying).

[Ventoy](nostr:nevent1qqs8kcajt8aydxjacw4ta8exv7vawn8p2n8m7k9jwuauzqgpgqxfx3cpzdmhxw309akx7cmpd35x7um58g6rsd3eqgsym07t03wahqjfl8r7hrppuqvlpralklk9mm25pzmpgkgtawx3d9grqsqqqqqp7s2fx5) would be great for trying out Cosmic on a USB stick. (Just note that running anything from a USB stick is much slower.)

 The greatest failure of everything around Linux is the seeming universal refusal to have pictures or short video or any visual content around new tools or distros to check out. It’s just paragraphs and paragraphs of description. 😆 

 I have been waiting for this new release! Not ready to try alpha but thank you! 

 Will switch to Cosmic from KDE once I get the time, looking forward to the new environment, it looks great
