Nice, was able to get cosmic-edit and cosmic-term working on windows even. cosmic-files crashes out with a windows memory error, the crash doesn't happen within cosmic-files though so I can't get a backtrace. It does seem to work well enough through WSL2 though

Be helpful
Posts to pop_os must be helpful. When responding to a user asking for help, do not provide tongue-in-cheek responses like "RTM" or links to LMGTFY. Linking to direct sources that answer the asker's question is fine, but it's advised to provide some explanation as to how you got to that source.
Critique should be constructive
We within the Pop!_OS community welcome helpful criticism or ideas on ways to improve. However, basic "It's bad" or other simple negative comments don't help anyone fix anything. When voicing a complaint about something, try to point out ways the complaint could be improved or worked around, so that we can make a better product for it.
This rule applies to both Pop!_OS and its projects as well as other products available from third-parties.
Don't post malicious "advice"
It can be funny to joke about malicious commands, however this is not the venue for it. Do not advise users to run commands which will lock up their systems, steal their data, or erase their drive. Examples of this include (but are not limited to) fork bombs, rm, etc.
Posts violating this rule will be removed, even if the post is clearly in jest. Repeated offences may lead to a ban. You may understand that the command isn't serious, but a new user might not.
No personal attacks
Posts making a personal attack on any user will not be tolerated.
No hate speech
Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated. Any violations will be removed, and are grounds for a ban.

Make sure to report issues on GitHub with details so we can investigate it when we have time.
will do when I find the time. Didn't know it was in that stage yet. Don't like spamming issue tickets for new projects that haven't had time to spread its legs yet.
I still don't really get the point of Cosmic when it just looks like Gnome anyway
Me: Can we have COSMIC?
Mom: We have COSMIC at home.
COSMIC at home: Attempting to call back into JSAPI during the sweeping phase of GC. Stack trace for context
Joking aside, COSMIC is nothing like GNOME. Not visually, not feature-wise, nor is it using the same software stack. It is as close to GNOME as KDE is to GNOME. Developed from the ground up in Rust.
Gnome is heavy to use, and buggy, lots of people like the design of gnome, but not the perf hit. It will be nice to use apps that both don't suck, and fit our general aesthetic
Michael probably can't say it, but there's a lot of people out there looking for "just" Gnome without it's original developers. For illustration you may simply google "gnome devs" and read the titles popping up. That said, lots of drama and not the most worthwhile usage of your time.
