Hey, people. What do y'all use for drawing pixel art these days? I'm looking into tools for this since what I've been using isn't really working out for me so well.

Also, really, I'm just trying to shut up the programmer in me that's going "If you'd just waste a few months of your life you can write your own, it'll be fun, promise!"

@mauve Definitely Aseprite! It's the cutest! Unfortunately it's not open source anymore, but the source code is still public, and you can find free binaries for all mayor operating systems on the Internet. Try the pixelart subreddit.

@blinry I've been recommended Aseprite, but I didn't know it was (at one point?) open source, I'll definitely look at that as I am an open source nerd and think wrangling with build systems is a bizarre sort of fun.
