#chafa — Public Fediverse posts

Behold the revolutionary #Chafa, where 21st-century #tech meets the artistic flair of a 1980s dot matrix printer. 🎨✨ Get ready to squint in awe at "reasonable approximations" of images, because who needs high-res when you have ANSI X3.64? 🙄🤦‍♂️

#TIL about #lsix (https://github.com/hackerb9/lsix) and calling #xterm with the option "-ti vt340" to be able to display inline images inside an xterm—thanks to lsix having just arrived in #DebianUnstable: https://packages.debian.org/sid/lsix

These inline images (or the backend used to display them) seem to be called #sixel graphics. And they're said to work transparently through SSH. Maybe better than #chafa or #catimg.

#BloomScrolling on the terminal! 😉

Got tired of #imv misbehaving on Wayland, and switched to chafa-in-a-footclient.

#Chafa is limited to 256 colors; are there any other *fast* #sixel capable terminal image viewers capable of at least ~1000 colors?
