> Was this reply intended for a comment? No, I'm just asking why there's interest around Sixel when there are protocols (like iTerm's Inline Images Protocol) that use standards-based image formats. I'm not a heavy terminal user and don't see much value for images in my CLI, so one very possible explanation is that I don't understand the use cases where this "interesting" format (without a guaranteed pixel aspect ratio, as I understand it) shines.
