The old Cosmic was built on top of Gnome using extensions, but the new Cosmic was written from scratch. It largely mimics the look of old Cosmic, but has introduced a few new things.
There are desktops try do mimic the look of MacOS, but none I've used actually felt like using MacOS. The first time I used MacOS, I was shocked at how many quirky things it does, the way it operates. No Linux desktop prepared me for that.
The only thing MacOS and Gnome have in common is a top bar and app grid. Other than that, MacOS is closer to Windows than Gnome.
And to further differentiate Gnome from MacOS,
Honestly the closest DE to MacOS is Cosmic. The launchers work similarly, the overviews work similarly, it has the option to handle minimized windows similarly to MacOS, uses menubars (but not global).

Controls must be simple. AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off
Let's hope that is true. I'm not counting on it.
There's an unofficial version of Bedrock for Linux that runs "natively" using the Android x86 version of the game. Unfortunately it currently does not support Mounts of Mayhem. https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.mrarm.mcpelauncher
Wine didn't work for Bedrock in the past because of how it was packaged on Windows. However, they recently switched the package type to something that Wine might support? Haven't tested or personally or see anyone else do it.
Nope, just stopped using it as my main drive. It becomes read-only far less often when only used as additional storage and less strenuous reading/writing.
I assume it is a firmware bug because both my original and replacement drive had the same issue.
Check dmesg logs and SMART check the drive.
I had two crucial drives that would go read only, some sort of firmware bug I guess.
Yup, been that way for a while unfortunately. Especially annoying for Linux and MacOS users who can't just launch Bedrock on their computers. Trying to complete challenges on a touchscreen is super annoying.
Not what the article is about. This is just saying that Ubuntu is changing up how they handle the Yaru theme so they stay better in sync with Adwaita changes.
Technically it's opt out. The welcome screen has it toggled on by default. But it is very prominently displayed, not hidden, so I don't mind so much.
Yeah, it's really annoying. For a game that many children play, I'm surprised they don't give super clear-cut instructions on how to actually get things.
It's not atomic or cloud native either if you want to be strict with definitions.
