Pop was my last Distro before I went to Endeavour (Arch), it wasn't anything against Pop, I just ran into a weird issue where I needed a more up to date GBLIC for some software I was trying to run (to add insult to injury, it was a Ubuntu package too). I am really excited by the work they do, if I'm ever shopping for a Non-Mac Laptop in the near future I'm strongly leaning towards buying a System76 laptop since I love what they do.

Their desktop environment was nice, though I always run back to KDE, even now I'm on KDE on Endeavour, I gave Budgie a try again which is another one I really enjoyed for Ubuntu but KDE has enough bells and whistles that I always miss, especially its window management stuff. I did try OpenBox and company but too much manual setup required. I want OOTB experiences that just work without hassle.

I am interested that they've been working on a Text Editor, I saw it on their GitHub, and hopefully it will be nicely polished.

One thing I loved about ElementaryOS (Ubuntu based as well) was the built-in custom Text Editor they made, it was nice and fast, and did everything I wanted, and looked gorgeous. I'm hoping they do similar with their Text Editor.
