Do we have a desktop (linux based) or a web client that works similar to the app OpenVibe? I would like to have a place where I can keep up with all ATProto websites on desktop at one place. Any tips?

I feel good that abandoned a platform run by a facist. I still have the account to preserve the handle, but I guess its time to get rid of it.
