GTK 4 + libadwaita is just sooo good!
In the recent weeks I've ported Cozy, the #linux audiobook app to GTK 4 (no features were harmed in the process).
The PR is now merged, and here's the result:

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
