Listen Later

If you've ever wanted to view images in the terminal, you've probably used Überzug. But Überzug is no longer maintained after the author shut down the repo. With no more Überzug, how are we supposed to preview anime wallpapers in terminal file managers? In this video, I'll go over some alternatives, including Uberzug forks and alternatives like Kitty's image protocol and Sixel.
