OK I had the distinct impression that there were now tools that could “rasterize” images to characters (similar to #AAlib and #libcaca), but with more aggressive usage of #Unicode characters to achieve better results. I have tried #img2txt from libcaca with the #utf8 option but it's still not satisfactory compared to what I remember, even for grayscale, so … which one was it?

Also #TIL that this is called #semigraphics or #pseudographics
