To be honest after switching to Pop_OS! several years ago I have no regrets. The system just _works_. And curiously enough, even though it should be as same as Ubuntu, Ubuntu does not work as seamlessly as this distro. Bluetooth, for example, U. does not want to register my keyboard without some terminal shenanigans; P does. I could not even make my bluetooth speakers work with U, yet with P it just purrs.

With Pop_OS! my distohopping days were over. I install it on my devices and I forget it. I am sure their COSMIC DE will be awesome to use.

I think this is because they have skin in the game. They sell computers and they make sure they work as flawlessly as it can be with the OS they are developing. They are not selling their devices in my country but who knows, if they start to do that they have a ready customer here.

IIRC Pop kernels are upgraded at a faster pace than Ubuntu. That could explain the compatibility improvements.
