Diamond Subpixel Simulator ⇥ mstdn.social

Ricky Romero built a very cool simulator to show how square pixels are drawn by the diamond subpixel layout of a display like that used for an OLED iPhone. You can draw or drop in images of your own to see how they render on a 40×40 grid.

Then the thread goes a little off the rails in the best possible way.
