The reason it’s promising is primarily because it does both floating and tiling window management well. It didn’t really click with me though the last time I tried it.
I just installed the Fedora spin with COSMIC this week. It’s running very nicely on a low powered mini-desktop with 8Gbit of shared memory. It feels light enough and easy enough to use for newcomers to Linux. Plus it has just enough eye candy to satisfy those that want some customization by just point and clicking.
I’m going to be trying it out for a while I think. But my laptop will always be Kinonite.
I’m now on KDE. Before I have used XFCE, Gnome, Mate and Cinnamon.
People seem excited about Cosmic.
What does it make it so promising?
