Sentiment

Generally positive toward the tool and results, with constructive criticism about insufficient documentation and clarity on the gallery page.

In Agreement

FFglitch’s gallery shows genuinely compelling datamoshing results that many find artistic and cool.
Datamoshing is an apt framing for what FFglitch enables, and resources like the Demuxed talk help explain how it works.
There’s a healthy ecosystem of frontends (including After Effects integrations), which makes FFglitch accessible for creators.
Glitch art’s practice—deliberately exploiting compression and format behavior—fits the gallery’s goal of demonstrating what’s possible.

Opposed

The gallery page doesn’t adequately explain what FFglitch does or how it differs from standard FFmpeg.
The “What?” page/button lacks sufficient technical and conceptual detail for newcomers.
Terminology and conceptual framing (glitch vs. data bending; ‘glitch architecture’) are unclear or potentially confusing.
Initial skepticism that ‘encoder errors’ can be meaningful art, though some critics revise their view after seeing examples.
