An awesome old-school pixel art program :3

GrafX2 is a free and open-source program to draw pixel art with! It only uses a 256 color palette (which means no sRBG), it runs on modern computers, but also old hardware such as Amiga and MS-DOS. :3 Both left and right mouse buttons are used to interact with the interface, which can be confusing at times, but it's not hard to get used to! I'm still learning how to use it myself honestly. X3 If you want to give it a try visit this website to download GrafX2! ^w^ Or if you're on Linux, search for it using your package manager :3

One of the best text editors uwu

NeoViM is a fork of ViM, with support of Lua scripts. This text editor can do a lot, one of the main aspects of it is that you don't have to use your mouse! I've really been struggling with some software on windows which always required the mouse to do something simple that a keyboard could do, NeoVim made it really satisfying for me to work with text only using the keyboard. :3 NeoViM is available on all popular platforms such as Linux and Windows. If you want to install NeoViM on Linux all you have to do is install the package by the name of "neovim". Although windows does have it's own package manager called "winget", you can also install it by downloading an installer from github using this link, just scroll down to the bottom and find a file called "nvim-win64.zip". Then, you can open your command line and type "nvim", there will be text on screen that will help you start! Just make sure not to resize your window. x3 If you're stuck you can always type ":q" to exit, although if something goes wrong, try ":q!" instead
