I’ve tried Lemoa: it’s truly atrocious to put it mildly. Besides, I couldn’t compile it on my GTK3 distro, there is no .deb, and using Flatpak means wasting hundreds of megabytes for what should be a simple, lightweight client. If I want to waste RAM, my browser is already running so I might as well use the web app from my instance.

I’ve tried Lemonade: the Python code doesn’t run (again, GTK4 dependencies), and the Flatpak doesn’t even display anything.

Liftoff is Flutter. No thanks…

NeonModem isn’t complete.

Servitor is command line. I love the command line, but that’s just the wrong environment for this.

Is there really nothing on Linux?

    I have to commit that I initially thought you were just another out-of-principle anti-everything-new guy that we have quite a few in the FOSS space, buy you’re absolutely right it seems.

      Thanks :)

      My personal tragedy is that I’m really not anti-anything, I always try to be fair and honest in my assessments, and balanced in my opinions. Yet I know I always come across as an insufferable ungrateful know-it-all for some reason. I’m glad when someone manages to see past this.
