Consider replace SixLabors.ImageSharp with the equivalent

I don't see the point in being dependent on a library that plans to switch to a commercial license https://sixlabors.com/posts/license-changes/

I see, what are the options? We don't actually use much of the features of SixLabors.ImageSharp. I believe mostly for size/colors.

More information:

From what I see if library is open source and we use SixLabors.ImageSharp there's no need to change anything:

"Transitive Package Dependency" shall mean any Work in Object form that is installed indirectly by a third party dependency unrelated to Six Labors.

Meaning that any open source software uses ImageSharp, and you have commercial software that uses this free library, but it doesn't automatically mean you have to pay for it. So there's no direct, instant danger.

Having said that I would be interested in alternatives.
