Tinyx – resurrected Xvesa from the depths of Git history
Interesting link!
If we look at this directory:
https://github.com/ghaerr/microwindows/tree/master/src/drive...
Most notably the source files that start with 'scr_', and of those most notably: scr_sdl2.c, scr_win32.c, scr_x11.c, scr_djvesa.c, scr_fb.c -- we see that this windowing system can apparently run on top of an existing windowing system, whether that system is SDL2, Win32, X11, VESA, Linux's framebuffer -- or several others.
Which makes it interesting and worthy of study...
Note that I am sure there are probably a whole lot of other windowing systems out there that also support these, let's call them "back-end" (for lack of better terminology) pre-existing windowing systems.
In other words, a windowing system -- on top of another windowing system...
Sort of like running X on top of Win32, or Win32 on top X...
But the posibilities of higher level and lower level windowing system are really unlimited -- mix and match, basically...
In conclusion -- excellent link!

JingPad A1 – World’s First Consumer Linux Tablet
I worked on this [1] Linux tablet 20 years ago, and we had working versions, but it doesn't really count as they weren't put into mass production. I don't know how many were built in the end (I left to co-found a webmail service). Sometimes it's depressing how long it takes for something to actually come to fruition. The screenshots in [1] are our custom UI based on NanoX [2], and an Opera port for the web browser screenshot (it worked). I wanted a production version for years after I left...

Nsxiv image viewer, how to navigate
I just installed Nsxiv image viewer https://codeberg.org/nsxiv/nsxiv on my Manjaro, but how to navigate in a folder full of pictures? I am using the mouse to open a picture then I would like to be able to navigate to the next or previous image, but I can't figure out how to do that...

Neovim GUI for Jupyter Notebooks
I use my fork of magma-nvim. To view graphs from matplotlib and the like, I just save them to a file and run nsxiv on the produced pic. (but magma also supports showing graphs with ueberzueg, assuming you have a terminal that supports it)

NSXIV 27.1 finally out! - community continuation of sxiv
To me, sxiv is the best minimal image viewer, the thumbnail mode is great and the default keybinds make sense. Once this gets proper support for pipes, I'll be able to finally ditch feh.
What are some alternatives?
moonlight-tv - Lightweight NVIDIA GameStream Client, for LG webOS TV and embedded devices like Raspberry Pi
feh - a fast and light image viewer
GPaste - Clipboard management system
imv - Image viewer for X11/Wayland
fbpdf - A small framebuffer pdf, djvu, epub, xps, and cbz viewer
jgmenu - An X11 menu
dark - C practice - basic roguelike in SDL2 that compiles both for desktop and Emscripten
devour - X11 window swallower
gfxprim - Open-source modular 2D bitmap graphics library with emphasis on speed and correctness.
pqiv - Powerful image viewer with minimal UI
libremarkable - The only public framework for developing applications with native refresh support for Remarkable Tablet
qimgv - Image viewer. Fast, easy to use. Optional video support.
