minus-squarezaphlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·7 months agoRuns better for me on manjaro than windows. Especially if a server I have open starts spamming gifs.

minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-27 months agoGIFs have a grainy pixelated look to them? Well no crap, the format comes from the year 1989 and is limited to 256 colors. That’s totally normal believe it or not. Edit: GIF is actually older than Linux
minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-27 months agoThat means they blurred them for your viewing pleasure. They’re still 256 color animations where the format was invented in 1989. Edit: The process GIF uses to store semi-video quality is called error diffusion. Look it up. 256 color palette is rather limited.
minus-squarezewm@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 months agoI’m not going to keep going back and forth about it. The fidelity of gifs on windows and Linux clients of discord differ greatly.
