SimpleImageViewer

View images fast and without any hocus pocus, sometimes less is better

Disclaimer

The inspiration was a YouTube video, I've watched the beginning and though to myself that this cannot be that hard to implement.
Of course it is not without usage, I will prepare the app to be hooked in Hyprland to launch the current photo stored in clipboard.
