To be more accurate, the dithering was more specific to animated gifs and not static pictures.

A simplified polygonal scene, originally from Futurama scene that’s styled like anime. Fry is saying “You and I are enemies now.” while pointing at a jpegified Professor Farnsworth. Meta note: The scene was made in the Godot game engine.
43KiB, though obviously a chunk of that is from the colors of the jpg Professor.
