I really hope the fractional scaling coming out of experimental means that GUIs will scale properly so that text is not all blurry, although I am ready for that to not be the case.
I am waiting for cosmic believe me, but it is still not on NixOS Stable. I will test it come June when the new kernel comes out :) believe I’m excited.
While I'm more of a KDE person myself, it's always nice to see a popular FLOSS desktop going strong - kudos to the gnome team!
Here's a written version in case you don't feel like watching a video: https://release.gnome.org//50/
Thank you for the link! So much better to read than watch a video IMO
Peertube version: GNOME 50: a MASSIVE release that delivers what users asked for!
Love Gnome 🥰

It depends on the app
A lot of apps are electron-based and all those look ass unfortunately. Incredibly blurry especially the text. This is on a 4k monitor too.
I’m not sure if this is something that GNOME has control over, but yeah.
I dont know what cosmic desktop is doing but all apps are fine there, including electron, on 4k monitors with fractional scaling.
I was very annoyed at gnome over this, but I used plasma for a while and thats also good. But cosmic is the best right now I think.

Yeah its actually very good. My daily driver for months now. :)
I take it they still haven’t developed the theme API they promised?
Good changes but I’m mostly interested only in the low latency cursor.
