Right, I guess that tends to be the case with file managers if you try to use these features on something else than regular local files.

Select multiple files first. If you have one selected, there’s a rename dialog, with multiple there’s a regex multi rename dialog.

Ghost Commander does have batch rename. You need to select multiple files and tap F2 Rename. Dunno how to use it, but it’s there.

Don’t you know, fat people can’t be made fun of. It’s the skinny people who are funny, see!

Cuz they just tend to be slow. I don’t know how these apps behave on a 1500€ phone, but I had a pretty beefy computer at my disposal these last 2 years and web apps are just always slower, usually much slower.

And back to phones, the UI of graphics web apps rarely considers them. Or they simplify the UI to the point of being unusably dumb.

And Paint… Yes true, but again do you understand “phone”?

I think it’s the transporter accident from ST:TMP. I didn’t know they can procreate.

Yea it’s not full-blown Photoshop layers in this regard. Still, with the amount of other stuff it has and for the price (or with just small ads and no fullscreen video ads or other crap), I really can’t complain. I’ve replaced amost every other app with a foss one, but there’s no good foss image editor. Pocket Paint and Litrato can do a few things here and there but not much and both seem abandoned.

Ed: Ok so PP isn’t abandoned and is quite nice in its own way but just doesn’t have the practicality for photo editing or meme making.

I sometimes use online apps when I need something specific and Christ that’s like the 6th level of hell on my old slow phone… Tho honestly I can’t imagine how an online app can ever be equal to a local one

Getting a 404 on that.

That would be sooo good

Ugh, flashbacks to KDE 4…

I only really watch foss stuff, which should be exciting, but I get tired as it’s always much of the same news:

• a new private messenger (like we don’t have 500 of those already)
• a new app/program/distro that does the same thing as 10 other ones
• a “simple” app/program that doesn’t do much of anything, just like 10 other ones of the same kind, will get 3 updates and then die
• something for the terminal for terminal nerds that could really use a gui but shutup you dirty normie
• a library that sounds cool but nobody except maybe some corporation will ever use it
• announcement of a complete rewrite, which means we’ll never hear of the project again

So I’m not exactly thrilled about anything either, tho for every different reasons

Im looking for the opposite, something that can keep the icon shape without changing it… But I want too much :'(

I’m not against gif in general as a format, nor for the specific use case I mentioned. (Even tho afaik webp or others can do animations and transparency too.)

But you know that when people say “gif” they really mean “short video”, and don’t know the difference. And so when they are making a short video and saving it, they see “gif” in export options and choose that, because they think that’s what it is.

A while ago I was debating with someone who was looking for an optimal way to encode gifs - as actual gif the format - of gameplay videos. Like, several minutes of HD gameplay, and they were using gif for that.

Similar problem is with PNG which people use for just about anything, like screenshots of Instagram posts.

If using more modern, better formats means killing old formats but also making the whole internet faster and me needing less storage space or not needing to go through conversion process every time, and maybe even eventually eliminating the ridiculously overcompressed or 100x recompressed or 8-bit dithered crap that are supposedly images and “gifs” these days, then I’m definitely for it.

Oh come on, every cpu in the last 15 years has hardware support for multiple simultaneous playbacks of h264 video, and in the last 10 years x265 too.

1000 gifs on a screen, yea that’s definitely not a page I ever want to see, thanks. Why the hell would I need that?

And yea sure obviously gif is efficient on bare metal cpu, because it’s a format made for 33 MHz CPU without a floating point. It was also made with a handful specific use cases in mind and specced accordingly, so it has absolutely no place in anything else than animated clipart loops. Don’t even argue, please, this is so silly.

Weird. Did you try through catbox.moe? That’s what I use to post images. I don’t have experience with animated stuff though, sorry.
