Hey,

Running it on AMD 7840HS 32Gigs DDR5 5600MHZ , 1TB SSD M.2 and MSI Gaming HDR Monitor!

Just wanted to say it looks amazing, and is working great!

Getting very good benchmarks and never crashes and using the CpuV4 Instructions just love how easy you made it.

I'm on KDE version it's awesome, and did try Niri best Niri version I ever used.


Thank you :)

Would like to add my energetic positive experience also to the thread. Here are my thoughts after some usage. My baseline is coming from Fedora Cosmic Atomic as my solid primary for quite some time.

Am running the Cosmic flavor on an ASUS Zenbook


Things I really like

   As someone else mentioned, ability to remove Firefox is quite nice and rare to see

   The panel Menu is very good and handy

   About System shows the Cosmic version installed! I was frustrated I never figured out how to view in Fedora Cosmic Atomic

 

Couple of "would be nice" things from my perspective

   The RakuOS Software store is great, I like it. But doesn't show the App Version or Download size? That's handy imo.

   When I open an app full screen my Dock which is normally centered and not extended to edges, dock floats off to the left edge.

Now those items could simply be a "me not knowing what I'm doing" issue


In any case, only been a week, but off to a truly great start. Honestly, it takes quite a bit to move me from Fedora Cosmic, as it really is pretty good. But the thoughtful additions going on here, plus being fully boot-c now, I'm excited to have made this my daily.


Thanks RakuOS Team!

Joining the party here, been trying fedora, fedora atomic, bazzite, cachyos, ubuntu, debian, and arch but something always felt wrong.

Some random reddit post led me here and I have now finally found my favorite OS, run as smooth as a train on my Framework Desktop.

Keep up the amazing work!
