The new 4o image generation is pretty crazy. I used it to recreate a real life caper pulled off by Tina over the weekend. #corgi #dogsofmastodon

🚀 Continuing my Linux migration series—this time with browsers.
I love Arc Browser, but no Linux support. 😢
Zen Browser was solid, but some of my key extensions are Chrome-only.

Now testing Vivaldi—it’s fast, polished, maybe too feature-packed? 😅

Got a favorite Chromium browser for Linux? Let me know!

(Skipping Brave—still feels kinda shady.)

#popos #cosmicOS speed is great as my daily driver! Finding Mac app replacements tough, especially Cleanshot for screenshots/annotation. Cosmic tool is okay, but what do you use on #linux? Recommendations?
