"oh, it's quite yellowed. Might need to retrobright it". No, it's just very dirty. Only cleaned 1 half.

Great article by @christopherdrum about the legendary Deluxe Paint (DPaint) Amiga pixel editor:

https://stonetools.ghost.io/deluxepaint-amiga

I dearly miss a mention of @PyDPainter though, the most authentic DPaint recreation I know, available for Windows and macOS…

I think the same thing that just happened with #Commodore should also happen with #NeXT. A representative of "the community" should acquire all rights to NeXT and revive the company. 😃
