About

Mess around with images and GIFs on Discord! Dimwit is a Discord bot that introduces numerous funny image-related commands. Written in TypeScript.

• Multiple image-related commands, and a small set of useful utility commands
  • All features fully work with all widely-used image formats, including GIFs
• A cache that allows users to select an already-uploaded image to use in their command without re-uploading it
  • The cache automatically saves, persisting between sessions
