What are the names of the filters? I’m not familiar with either app and the commit “renaming” them only inserts the letter `i` in a UI template.

This person submitted a pull request to actually-rename them, which conveniently shows the full list: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/pull/4038/files
Thanks. From Supernault’s framing I’d expected generic terms like sepia, grayscale, invert, etc. but actually they’ve reproduced forty arbitrary, artsy words that sound like they could have come from a fashion brand name generator. Hard to see that as “being sued over css”.
That happen to exactly match Meta’s arbitrary list of artsy words. Clearly, they copied the names.
