The only reason why I built Upscayl was because there were no GUI solutions for Linux. Everywhere you see, Windows Windows Windows. Which is great for Windows people, but you already have Topaz Gigapixel, arguably the best piece of paid software I've ever seen.

I wanted something similar for Linux. After receiving "No, I don't think so" as a reply for my question about Image upscaler GUIs for Linux on r/opensource, I decided to build one of my own. I hope the GUI can benefit other people.




Don't let the haters get you down. This looks really useful.

Easily portable binaries that do one thing well are highly underrated. I will be trying this out on my PC.

Thank you!


Don't get turned off by the negativity - pretty nice cross-platform work you have here.


Thanks a lot! The appreciation really motivates me to keep making my projects better :)


Thank you for building it. Screw the haters on this website.


thank you for making this <3
