Back to #Wayland and input methods.
What's your favorite input method?
Cause for me it was the one on old #Nokia phones. I could type with my hands in my pockets! Handy in winter.

Tested with #cosmic and #GTK .
This is just the beginning. Actually useful stuff is coming in the future. #Mobile keyboards, #Chinese input is what it's for:

Today we released a new pair of spins - Fedora COSMIC and Fedora COSMIC Atomic!
Thank you to the folks at @COSMIC_desktop and @system76 for helping @ryanabx and the Fedora community make this happen. :)

fedoraproject.orgFedora COSMIC SpinThe Fedora COSMIC Spin provides the COSMIC Desktop Environment from System76. A modern desktop that features advanced functionality and a responsive design.
With optional Auto-tiling, newly opened windows arrange themselves in a grid. Use tiled, classic "floating" windows, or a mix of both across all workspaces. Have fun customizing theme colors to your liking. Save your favorite themes to your desktop and share with your friends.
What do you think is still missing in #Wayland?
I feel that the last rough edges have been ironed out in the last year. This includes #HDR, #TripleBuffering, #ColorManagement, #SessionRestore implementations, improved #Accessibility, etc.
What important pieces do you think are still missing in Wayland?
#XWayland #Mutter #KWin #Gnome #KDE #X11 #XOrg #Cosmic #Enlightenment #GTK4 #GTK #QT6 #Weston #Cinnamon #Xfce hyprland #niri #sway
#COSMIC is not even out of alpha and there's lots of #accessibility features already available!
There's more work to be done, for sure, but this is a very nice to see!

"Dance is active meditation.
When we dance, we go beyond thought, beyond mind and beyond our individuality to become one in the divine ecstasy of the union with the cosmic spirit.
This is the essence of the trance dance experience."
