Noticed the bot here.

I have an internet-age attention span, so I don't know if I'll remember that it exists and that I can use it, but the fact that you made it is already deserves a thank you!

I'm really glad you like it!

It was made out of convenience and seeing that it can be useful for some Redditors makes me really happy. :)

If you have any suggestions for features or find any bugs please let me know

Well, there is one thing: the What colorblind users see-link has the deuteranopia, protanopia and tritanopia simulations, but not their equivalent anomalies. I have protanomally myself, so these are always a bit too "heavy" to represent how I see things (turning to grey or brown when I still see reds or greens).

I have only seen one program in the wild that does the anomaly simulations, so I guess it's not trivial to implement, but at least it proves it is possible:

Sadly it isn't open source :/

Also, this isn't something I think I'd miss much - while I use that simulation in the app to show my friends how I see something IRL all the time, that's because it comes up in daily life. I don't know how often I would need it for imgur images.

Anyway, thanks again for making this!
