Helge Heßhelge@mastodon.socialApr 22, 2026, 6:02 PM@nicoreese @puppethead It's *also* a View, like other more model like things, e.g. Color. But it's also an Image in the original sense.
I think they chose not to expose the underlying representation because UIImage and NSImage are really different and at least the latter can be problematic thread transfer wise.
