From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm not really invested in Cosmic, I'm happy with Hyprland and will continue to use it.
I do think they did a REALLY nice job with the tiling. I don't think you can find a more intuitive and user friendly tiling window manager. Something that's not absolute barebones out of box and can be configured entirely with a GUI. In that regard it does bring something to the mix and is very very welcome.
I wish KDE had something like that! AFAIK I think most tiling things are still broken and haven't quite caught up to Plasma 6 yet.
KDE has """tiling""". They called it tiling but it's just god awful. If KDE had real automatic tiling, I would probably have sticked with it, to be honest.
