COSMIC Epoch 1.10 Released With Launcher Now Using GPU Accelerated Rendering

System76 released COSMIC Epoch 1.10, an incremental update to the Rust-based COSMIC desktop built alongside Pop!_OS. The headline change switches the COSMIC Launcher to GPU-accelerated WGPU rendering by default, fixing long-standing severe slowness (users reported ~1fps scrolling and laggy text input) that had persisted since launch despite earlier claims an iced library update would fix it. The release also adds per-display mapping for drawing tablets, compositor fixes, a WiFi page that only appears in Initial Setup when a WiFi adapter is present, and various other fixes.
