John Bradley, the author of the XV image viewer, has passed away.
XV evokes a great deal of nostalgia in me. It harks back to a time when Linux was simpler and felt like unexplored territory.

@carlosefr@mastodon.social xv was/is great. I bought a license way back in time. So long ago I don't remember what the driver for it was... support, extra features? This would be in the mid '90s. I remember being quite pleased with it.
