I wish Linux framebuffer consoles would support sixels to do without X or wayland, mostly to have inline plots line https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-gnuplot without having to use say fbi This is possible on NetBSD: https://github.com/isaki68k/misc/blob/master/NetBSD/patch/x68k-ite-sixel.diff https://github.com/isaki68k/misc/blob/master/NetBSD/patch/x6... Also, more and more terminals are getting Sixel support: https://www.arewesixelyet.com/ https://www.arewesixelyet.com/ > On the other hand, text output to the console has generally gotten slower, usually much slower than you would expect for the change in console size I don't see why we should tolerate slow rendering of text. Some of the techniques suggested by Casey Muratori (and recently used to accelerate text rendering in Windows Terminal) should also be usable in the framebuffer console.
