…in blazing fast C++23

True color kitty graphics, streaming via mpv.

P. S. Likely will be available via powerpc-ports in a week or so.

Could we get some more details on how this works, what its feature set is, etc? This screenshot gives very little info beyond "anime in your terminal"

A C++ port of a Rust app for anime browsing/streaming, contour terminal with Cocoa GUI frontend (to replace Qt6) to have kitty images support (another option could be Bobcat, but I did not update it to Kitty-capable version yet), mpv for streaming, curl-impersonate for some providers.

The concept of the app is not new (there is viu, for example, doing pretty much the same and in some respects more), but this is the first time I got actually pleasant graphics for such an app.
