Hey fedi,
I want to do some experimentation with #sixels. What's the simplest graphics format that I can export from #krita that I can then write a tool to convert into the sixel format?
My naïve guess would be bitmap, but knowing the formats of that era, I'm willing to bet there are at least a half dozen different incompatible .bmp formats.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • •So yeah, I was right about the technical debt present in .bmp, but all is not yet lost. I have a solution.
It turns out that GIMP supports exporting to the QOI format, which is actually pretty reasonable. It's an extra step, but hey, whatever works.
