π° Memerist is a new desktop meme generator for Linux
Is the classic image meme dead, or buried under an avalanche of AI slop? Memerist, a new(ish) native meme generator for Linux, emerged on Flathub recently to help dig them out. Memerist is a native (GTK4/libadwaita) app for Linux desktop. It is technically an image editor with a focused set of features, geared to those who want a convenient, local tool to quickly create and share popular memes.

π° Xournal++ adds tablet-friendly toolbar mode
If you take handwritten notes on a Linux tablet, chances are that Xournal++ is already on your radar as its solid stylus support and touchscreen compatibility has earned it a loyal following among those whoβd rather annotate PDFs or sketch diagrams than type everything out. One criticism that follows it around is its interface. Itβs rather pointer-led; lots of menus, buttons and tiny hit targets in toolbars.
