Hi. Please take a look at Graph1. It may potentially be what you're looking for: https://graph1.codument.com/

It is designed for (simple) animated graphics projects. A considerable improvement in displaying pixel fonts is planned to be rolled out in 2-3 weeks.

Cool, so I'm not the only one here ๐Ÿ˜. Mine was also RHL 5.x, can't remember the exact minor version, whatever they sold on CDs in 1999. I then switched to FreeBSD for a year or so.

There definitely is a textual description somewhere. I just found the intro (the commercial)awkwardly entertaining.

Python allows non-programmers program, hence its popularity. I personally don't like Python, but I can tolerate it, and I even sometimes use it when I need a very quick solution (automation, quick data analysis, etc.). I once had to maintain a large and complex backend written in (untyped) Python, and it was a nightmare. Deno surely solves those problems. To each their own. We can't expect everyone to be competent, can we? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I'm a super happy new Lemmy user. Last week, I created an account on Reddit for the first time ever. I replied to 3 posts in a polite manner and right on topic (in a Linux-related community, someone asked for a book recommendation. The other two were answers to technical questions on Rust and Linux). A couple of hours later, I was reading about what shadowban meant. I waited a few days, sent some messages to admins / support but to no avail. Then I searched for alternatives to Reddit and landed here. It's been 4 days, and I absolutely love it here. Lemmy seems to have that spirit of the Internet of the 90s, which I thought was long gone. Also, my assumption is that Lemmy users are of a higher quality than those on Reddit. It's very easy to end up on Reddit / IG / Facebook / etc. On the other hand, to become a Lemmy user, one actually needs to apply some effort and do at least some research. Or to have a cool friend who can recommend becoming a user here (if you have a cool friend, that makes you kind of cool too, right?). I should probably start telling my friends about Lemmy ๐Ÿค”

I did not participate in the forum back then, but I watched probably a hundred hours of movies thanks to the reviews. Whoever Mr. Roboto and other reviewers were, I'm eternally thankful ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ™
