Here's one I know. Creates aesthetic wavy things.

It is an HTML/JS pair, so it would require some wrangling to get it to write to a file instead of an HTML canvas. Though it looks like someone translated it to Python with file output here. (I have not tested this.)

    This might be the first time I've ever seen something productive happen in the Phoronix forums. I love that place. Go to any topic with more than about a dozen posts and it's almost guaranteed to be a flame war. Genuinely one of the funniest places on the Internet.

    Check out this one. It took like three posts!

    Hexbear is an instance formed mostly by former r/chapotraphouse users after that sub was banned from Reddit a few years ago. Hexbear used to run on a custom fork of Lemmy so that the community could add extra features that they wanted (like custom emoji) but it was recently ported back to mainline Lemmy after merging or reimplementing as many changes as possible.

    Currently, Hexbear does not have federation enabled, and there is discussion about who to federate with or even whether to federate at all. The community is very active and self-sufficient and some members prefer the isolation.

    Content-wise, it's a leftist-focused instance. Some shitposts, some serious posts, and a lot of inside jokes.
