Looks very usable to me.
Thumbnail mode doesn't work for me. It's not in manual so I'll assume
it's work in progress. I'd personally would want to use mouse for
zooming and moving around, but -= hjkl is also fine.
I'd consider adding something similar to sxiv's -o option. I don't
personally use it but it seems very useful and not very hard to
implement.
Personally I'm fine with using sxiv. I've never looked at it's source
code but it doesn't seem bloated to me at all, it's even formally
approved on
https://suckless.org/rocks/.
I've just check and it seems that sxiv isn't maintained anymore
https://github.com/muennich/sxiv. I'd consider it complete though, and I
haven't spotted any bugs.
After fixing the thumbnail mode and adding the -o option it'd definitely
be a great replacement for sxiv. I'd most like switch if that was
implemented.
In Makefile you should add `mage.o: image.c cmd.c layouts.c`, so if you
change e.g. image.c, then mage.o and mage get rebuild. Right now it's
not the case.
