   Friendship ended with GIMP.
   Libresprite is my new best friend for pixel art.

     @lanodan true, aseprite was really good (when it was FOSS)

     @a1ba And proprietary relicensing can GTFO in my book.

     @lanodan I think the source is still available, but when I tried it, it was pretty good already and LibreSprite probably inherited it all.

     @untsuki @a1ba For me anything but libre just ends up inacceptable for tools/infrastructure.
     I've had enough rug pulls in my life or straight up broken software where I'd have to maintain a fork.

     @a1ba @lanodan
     
     Currently, paid source-availible aseprite is way more featureful than libresprite.
     
     But libresprite is still a good simple editor, and a better way of legally getting "free aseprite" than building from source or finding old builds.
     
     P.S. Proprietary relicensing is a bad taste, but I think it's not THAT bad when source is still available and software stays a fair indie thing with one-time buying and not turning into ad/spyware. I personally build aseprite from source myself since nixos allows automating it and I find it useful enough it to sacrifice time and cpu usage during updates.

     @a1ba @lanodan I only found out about libresprite right after I got aseprite again, but after I got a couple extensions and discovered the foss version is before extensions were added
