I think we have to give credit where it’s due and a lot of Linux apps (mostly the non-distro ones, so no Gnome apps etc.) Do have quite dated interfaces. I can’t find a nice mail client except mailspring and bluemail, both of which then come with some features not working (depending on your distro etc.)

I can’t switch from Celsius to Fahrenheit, the switch just reverts. I do think it looks beautiful and has weather stats that I use when I bike but other apps don’t always have (air quality, UV) .
Flatpak usually require to install huge dependencies. Because it don’t use system one.

Well, the size estimate on flathub assumes that you’re installing every dependency, which only happens if it’s the first app you’re installing with this FreeDesktop version, which is rare. I have like 15 flatpak apps installed, all of which had a claimed install of over “1 GB”, but the flatpak install directory is only like 2 or 3 GB.
There’s just not a great way to predict how big an install will actually be from flathub.
Edit: just to give you an idea, since its only downloading the deltas, most of these “1 GB download size” Flatpak apps are downloading less than 100 MB

Maybe I’m missing a setting, but I can’t get this to scale with my vertical monitor. Rearranging the layout would be cool too.
It won’t load places. Heck, won’t even load the default city. And when I’m searching for my city it crashes to wait or force close. In case you’re wondering, it’s the flatpak version on Fedora Workstation.

GTK4 as well. You always love to see it.
It’s pretty decent. I have it pinned already.
Doesn’t look like shit for a Linux app.
My brother in Christ we have whole communities dedicated to showing off how good Linux apps look. Meanwhile there’s none for windows and apple XD

Thunderbird is quite nice with the new updates
Here is a screen-shot of latest Thunderbird (ESR) Email client: www.thunderbird.net/media/img/…/mail-screen.png
Damn thats beautiful

Very nice. I haven’t even looked, are there any other popular fully featured weather apps native to Linux?
Amazing design. It also appears to be on the AUR as well if anyone is interested: aur.archlinux.org/packages/mousam
And even better… on flathub: flathub.org/apps/io.github.amit9838.mousam
I wouldn’t say better, it is all based on preference. And it was already mentioned.
Just installed via Octopi. Nice design

Based weather app! Death to Fahrenheit!
Very nice UI. Pleasantly surprised (even if I’m staying w/ ansiweather)
3.5 GB disk space required? I’ll just look out the window, thanks.
GB or MB?

Otherwise ya this looks and works well.
