When going back and forth between my editor, LibreOffice will not work. The same thing holds true with my book manuscripts. For that particular job, I use Final Cut Pro. In the end, they all failed to live up to my expectations and to make the task of editing professional-quality videos possible. For years I struggled with using OpenShot.

I’ve tried every single open source video editor on the market. However, there are certain instances when an open source solution simply will not satisfy the demands I’ve placed on the software.

I also held the opinion that there’s no way a browser from the developers that brought us the Windows desktop could possibly live up to the Linux desktop standards by which I measure all applications. I knew Microsoft was bringing Edge to Linux. The whole Binance feature always has me questioning the choice, and there are times when copy/paste is even worse than it is in Vivaldi. For the past two months, Brave has been the browser I’ve depended upon, but it’s far from perfect. However, rumblings within the Mozilla community, and a return to a bloated browser, had me second-guessing that choice, so I shifted to Vivaldi, Chrome, Chromium, and then landed on Brave. For the longest time, I was a faithful Firefox user. I’ve been on a quest to find the ideal web browser for the Linux desktop. His conclusion might surprise Linux fans everywhere.
