   QOI is a format that is adorable and i kind of only look at it when i'm doing memes :blobcatgoogly:

     @mian i was distracted by teletext. looked at the terminal size for it (40x24) and then thought about multiplying that by 8 (because the old sinclair fonts were 8x8), and then going okay so now we're talking about around 899 (i don't think you can use pages 0-99 idk) "png files."
     
     then started wondering about ways to start crunching that :blobcatgoogly:
     
     qoi only comes up because maybe throw lizard/lz4/zstd at it afterward.
     
     although zstd is a big library... hm

     Its just unreasonably effective for what it is.

     @mian it defeats the simplicity somewhat yeah. i tried to look in to how zstd works and the codebase and spec seemed quite large. but facebook is also a bit bloaty so it might not have to be.
     
     lz4, lizard and fastlz are mostly just the usual deduplication encoding so they aren't that complicated in theory. though lizard i think does add a basic entropy coder.
     
     zpaq is cool but holy shit holy shit why is there a JIT in the decoder pipeline :blobcatsleepless2:

     zstd after qoi defeats the purpose imo
