They are both called Cosmic to make things less confusing.

What Desktop Environment do you use?
I think there might be some confusion in this poll and thread -- COSMIC is the name of both a suite of components in Pop_Shell, which modifies (but does not replace) GNOME shell components like the dock and workspaces, as well as a full-fledged desktop environment that replaces GNOME.

Touchscreen gestures broken in PopOS with Wayland?
I'm using PopOS with Wayland on a Surface Go 2, and can't find a way to switch between workspaces and apps using multitouch gestures. There's a bug report here touching on these issues but I'm wondering of anyone has found a good workaround or fix for this. Any advice appreciated!

[Poll] Who is still disabling the Pop COSMIC extension to get the pre-21.04 "Activities" view (combining Workspaces and the Application search)?
FWIW, I've also created a Github issue on the subject: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic/issues/386

If the Pop Launcher could do anything, what would you want it to do?
Just to be clear, you are talking about the Pop Launcher and not the Cosmic Applications Launcher, correct? (since there may be some confusion around what the "Pop Launcher" is vs. the "Cosmic Applications Launcher" ... see https://imgur.com/a/XN34drv for images)

Cosmic: The Road to Alpha
Bit of a side note, but COSMIC depends on the rustybuzz text shaper which is deprecated: https://github.com/RazrFalcon/rustybuzz/issues/74. There was some work underway to bring it up to sync with the latest harfbuzz and then handing over ownership to the harfbuzz team, but this seems to have fizzled out.

Is coding in Rust as bad as in C++? A practical comparison
I understand that this may sound harsh, but I also ported two (far bigger) codebases from C++ to Rust: rustybuzz and tiny-skia. Both of which are production -ready and not just prototypes. And mine not only do not use pointers, but also barely use unsafe in general.

Is There An Algorithm To How Computer Cursors Highlight Text?
harfbuzz is a popular library for text rendering. You may also want to check out rustybuzz, a small subset of harfbuzz ported to Rust with pretty great documentation.

Speedy2D: Easy-to-use library for graphics, text, and input events
Yeah Allsorts looks interesting, and rustybuzz is another option. I haven’t tried either yet, though.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cosmic and rustybuzz you can also consider the following projects:
gnome-hud - Unity like HUD menu for the GNOME Desktop Environment using rofi menu.
fontdue - The fastest font renderer in the world, written in pure rust.
gnome-shell-extended-gestures - Better touchpad gesture handling for GNOME
Speedy2D - Rust library for hardware accelerated drawing of 2D shapes, images, and text, with an easy to use API.
touche - The desktop application to configure Touchégg
swash - Font introspection, complex text shaping and glyph rendering.
shell - Pop!_OS Shell
allsorts - Font parser, shaping engine, and subsetter implemented in Rust
gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock - Pop!_OS fork of https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock/tree/ubuntu-dock
ab-glyph - Rust API for loading, scaling, positioning and rasterizing OpenType font glyphs
dash-to-dock - A dock for the Gnome Shell. This extension moves the dash out of the overview transforming it in a dock for an easier launching of applications and a faster switching between windows and desktops.
