I found that it only works in tiling mode, which may be better but normal snapping in windowed mode is pretty normal I think.
Okay thats fair
Clicking on the notification doesnt open the image, there is no recording and it has no editing :D but it works well and way quicker than Spectacle
Added features I like about dolphin. For sure I could install dolphin instead. I would also prefer a places bar where you can click on the parent directories, clicking on the empty space after them activates manual path selection mode. But the filemanager is already pretty nice. In the editor I would miss things like LSP and text snippets, but it seems very nice for its purpose.
That view is nice, but the drag-drop animation is similar to KDE (apps need to already be opened) and they are not minimized during the action, so it looks a bit clunky. Also removing workspaces is kinda buggy.

I find some things confusing to use. Like maximizing/tiling windows my dragging them to screen edges doesnt work. I think documentation about the tiling would be awesome, as meta+arrows also didnt do anything.
It seems the tiling is only active when using tiling mode? That mode is slick as fuck, but having super+arrow always available or at least the tiling applet always shown would be great.
I am also not a fan of the color scheme, which is too black and I would prefer a less aggressive "active window" border.
The screenshot tool is very minimal but works well, its hard to reach a (bugfree ;D) KDE spectacle.
Same with the Filemanager and Editor, Dolphin is the best piece of software in existence, I love it. Kate is also great. (Main dolphin features: filter, search, preview size, column selector, custom right-click actions, custom buttons, custom places bar with custom names and icons,
And there is this issue with 3rd row symbols and keyboard layout not working at all. I have an en-GB keyboard, en-US either has no 3rd row or this is actually not working, and I also needs to disable capslock and use it to switch between 2 layouts.
The app menu has no "show all apps" view which makes searching a pain for me. I also prefer the layout of either GNOME (showing all apps with folders and rearranging) or KDE Kicker (WinXP like with search and favorites).
I will try and see what my problem with the search was, because that would probably be my preferred way.
The ability to remove the top panel, and to resize the applets independently of the app icons is crucial for creating a laptop-friendly one-button-panel layout. The GNOME-style only makes sense in GNOME I think.
Style-wise I think it already looks great, and its snappy and modern and has better dual-monitor support than Plasma 5, which is kinda crazy.
COSMIC is huge, they implemented like all the base components (compositor, xwayland, font rendering, refresh rate stuff, own GUI toolkit, ...) which is incredible, but the GUI is very alpha and I wouldnt like using it tbh.
Their groundwork is awesome, and with a style like KDE I think it woulf be incredible. Their apps are very fast too.
Chromium is not stripped down at all, just use googerteller and see. It contacts Google everywhere, on the password list, on the account list, in some settings pages, and just randomly sometimes.
It is very crazy. And also it is not fingerprint resistant at all.
I am using all flag settings, policies and GUI settings possibly existing and it still is like that. So no, it is not the same privacy-wise.
And sometimes it prevents sites from working, because paywalls that are avoidable by blocking the cover are deprecated and nowadays real solutions are used. This means such size will just break.
Ublock can also remove overlays, and I am sure it you add more lists they will be blocked by default.
Having less code run in your browser is always recommended.
if you are using your own index, I think you could use a more economical approach to fight the spam bullshit of the modern web.
instead of using badness enumeration, crawling everything and filtering malware, use an opt-in principle
have a community method of gathering new trusted websites
use websites internal search functions to get more results
use categories to split up the websites, reinventing what people should find: general, news, navigation, science, politics, IT, technology (not code), art, music, philosohy, ....
have an app or submission website where users can submit new websites, and some form of community control over it (kinda censorship but in a good way)
This could fix the web as it currently is, by rethinking what should be found, pushed etc. Rating websites by quality could also be helpful.
Also if you support payments in crypto or cash, there should be no problem to make it paid.
