Thanks for that makes sense.

I’ve done this but like I mentioned above there is no dock and none of the keyboard shortcuts work so I can’t get the app launcher to open.

How would I go about trying this?

I’ve got Pop_OS! Installed on a laptop and I’ve gone and enabled Wayland and installed all the comic packages but it doesn’t really do anything.

When I launch COSMIC from GDM there is no dock I cannot get the launcher to work so I can’t open the terminal basically none of the keyboard shortcuts work from GNOME.
