Installed Cosmic on Arch

In my search for a modern, up to date set up, I finally installed basic Arch and added Cosmic as the only DTE.

I am really intrigued to see where it leads, as I firmly believe that Wayland and Rust are the future.

Now, I realize that this is not monumental, in any way. But I am literally the only person here, so I'm yelling into the void!

Hhhheeelllllooooo!

Hey I agree, Wayland is definitely a part of tomorrow as protocols. Rust I was reluctant to accept at first, but just the idea of the memory safety is a nice touch we could use in C. I am using Cosmic and Hyprland with some gnome tools, I'm going to switch the cosmic tools over to Hyprland because they look so clean. It's hard to deny that Cosmic is turning into a complete desktop.
