It does feel like they lost some momentum by doing that. I don’t have numbers of course, but it seemed like everybody was talking about it around the time 22.04 came out. Now I don’t hear nearly as much. Hopefully the new release will regain some of that!
After all the time they’ve spent on Cosmic, I doubt they’re going to stop using it now. If you dislike it that much, you might be better off looking for another distro that offers a different DE.
Because you just complained about them not releasing updates? Work on the underlying distribution is most likely going to be slow for a while longer since they’re continuing to work on Cosmic. I’m sure you have your reasons for doing it this way, but you’re already using a different DE than Pop comes with. Why not put your DE of choice on another distribution where you can get the normal system updates you want?

Pop comes with KDE/Plasma.
I use PopOS because I have a System76 laptop. It runs well on my hardware. I’m allowed to complain about things without some shit telling me to just “use another distro”. If I wanted to run another distro I’d run another distro. Lordy…

I originally responded to you with a suggestion that I hoped would be helpful, not knowing what your experience level or reason for using the distro was. You responded by being rude and insulting. I hope you have a good day!
It’s been 1000 years…
It’s better to wait for a stable product than to release it early with full of bugs
Agreed, but I am a little annoyed that they held up all of Pop!_OS for COSMIC.

I’m sure it will. A company is behind it.
I’m very annoyed - I hate cosmic and just want normal sytem updates.

This makes no sense - Pop_OS offers Gnome, KDE/Plasma, etc. as alternatives. Why should I stop using it because I don’t like one of the other DEs?
