thanks for using cohost! :eggbug:

introducing cohost 22, the hit new operating system taking the computing world by storm!

this new desktop environment is stealing the hearts of thousands and hoarding them away in its lair! what new experiences await with the power of the Cohost 22 operating system? find out for yourself! (desktop only)

some quick notes:

  • animations in details tags seem to be handled differently between chromium (at least edge) and firefox, so firefox users you get the shutdown and repeated start menu animations all to yourselves :)
  • you cant actually interact with anything that is down and to the right of the window on top, this is a limitation of how the draggable window hack works that i don't think is bypassable
  • ps in case i did a bad job making it obvious you do need to click desktop icons again to close applications
  • demoing things in standalone browser then copying over to cohost and realizing i need several dozen margin:reverts is extremely fun and cool and not soul crushing
  • it's come to my attention since this was posted that window dragging controls are inverted on older versions of firefox for some reason, up to at least version ~102. idk why but i dont think i can fix it so sorry!

anyway enjoy this little thing!
