Show HN: Paintpot – Kid-friendly MSPaint clone for Linux

https://github.com/marktbaldridge/paintpot/

Most of the alternatives diverged from the true fun of MSPaint that I had as a child. My children also seem to enjoy this. The closest existing project was "Drawing" on Linux, but I felt it couldn't decide if it was a vector or a raster editor, and this confused my kids, and made good fill pours difficult.

Features added beyond original Paint: - Draw circles starting from the center. - OKLCH Palette - Visible pixel grid when zoomed in. - Builds on Linux and Windows. - Written in rust.
