I want to get into the pixel art space. I've heard of some tools a friend uses, but I'd prefer to use something open-source if possible. What are some of the best options available?

I tried installing the rewrite for libresprite but couldn't get it to go ;_;

I managed to build main (or rather development) on arch linux without problems (https://github.com/LibreSprite/Dotto/tree/development). Must appreciate how easy it is to build compared to Aseprite. Tho its still quite far from usable even tho it has 1000 commits, but they are putting lots of work into it.
