It's the day before Saturday, which means it's time for

🔢 F I L L O M I N O F R I D A Y 🔢

(Disclaimer: this series started last Saturday and ends next Thursday, so only consists of one 1️⃣ fillomino)

"What's this?", you exclaim. "A genre that has appeared on GAPP before? " Well, some genres are so good that one puzzle couldn't possibly do them justice! Of course we will continue to explore new rulesets, but sometimes it's good to revisit the tried and true of the puzzle world.

Rules: Divide the grid into regions of orthogonally connected cells. Two regions of the same size may not share an edge. Clued cells must belong to a region containing the indicated number of cells.

Example by clover (puzzlink): https://tinyurl.com/2p8kc8mc

Acquire a Speedy Sloth 🦥 by solving the puzzle in 3:00 or less!
Obtain a Quick Crab 🦀 by solving the puzzle in 7:00 or less!
And all solvers who complete the puzzle will be rewarded with a Regional Razorbill 🐦

Note: puzzlink answer check requires each region to contain at least one correct number, and no incorrect numbers. (You can adjust the setting to "check multiple errors", which means pressing check indicates all errors present).

Further note: the puzz.link interface allows you to drag numbers/drag auxiliary lines, which may be helpful for solving.
