I’ll start: while looking at app theming I came across WallRizz, renamed from WallWiz. I haven’t tried it, and looking at it documentation it seems well made, but I cringe at the name and the AI-generated penguin logo. It shares the art style of all the other AI slop, its basically italian brainrot but 2D. WallWiz sounds way better, rizz sounds like it was specially designed for gen alpha (little kids). If there are apps of even similar quality, why would I use this one?
For a while there, there was a fork of GIMP that simply changed the name to Glimpse. That was the only one I felt comfortable mentioning in professional contexts.
Some years ago I got in touch with one of the primary maintainers of that fork in the interest of continuing the project after realizing it was so stagnant, and I was essentially warned that doing so would open myself to immense harassment, and that harassment was why everyone involved stopped with the project in the end. So…what is all of this about “if you don’t like X, fork it” if that is what will happen when one does? Seems pretty rotten advice to give if it’s just going to be sabotaged anyway. Someone I know still uses the outdated Glimpse regardless.
