Anime Effects, or AniE for short, is an open source 2D animation app written in C++ using the Qt framework. Add this to the many 2D opensource animation apps available for everyone.

AnimeEffects was originally developed by Japanese artist and programmer Hidefuku, the app during its development gained a lot of traction for being an easy and open source way to do 2D animation, unfortunately however in April 2017 Hidefuku would make his last known commit to the repository, after which they completely vanished from the internet.

elementary OS may not be as much as popular as it used to be.

That being said, elementary OS 8 release is still on the horizon with some useful changes based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

...

However, amidst disagreement between co-founders during the pandemic in 2022, co-founder Cassidy quit the elementary OS team.

Right after that, the development pace took a big hit, and we saw elementary OS 7 being released almost a year after Ubuntu 22.04 LTS came up.

...

A good indicator about its development activity is its upcoming major release, elementary OS 8, based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

I took a sneak peek at it using the daily build, and elementary OS 8 is almost ready to have an RC release.

...

You can expect things like:

• The settings app handles system updates (instead of AppCenter)
• AppCenter is now Flatpak only
• New toggle menu icon giving you easy access to the screen reader, onscreen keyboard, font size, and other system settings
• WireGuard VPN support

The Flatpak is already packaged and works well. It just needs to be maintained from a person that joins the Inkscape community.

This would allow further improvements like Portal support and making the app official on Flathub.
