Honestly, I’ve given up on Pop OS and cosmic. System76 clearly overestimated their abilities with the decision to develop their own desktop environment. As a result they have been in development limbo for cosmic for multiple years now and at the same time have abandoned their existing distro and its users. Pop OS is still based on Ubuntu 22.04 with no official upgrade path.

Unfortunately, System76 hasn’t shared any specific details or an official timeline yet. But don’t worry—we’ll be among the first to let you know as soon as there’s news, so keep an eye out for updates.

It’s better not to have a definite timeline and to release it when it’s ready. First impressions are key because this will be System76’s main distro for their computers.
