Show HN: Luminous – fast image viewer in Rust, SAM 3 and CLIP support

Hey HN! I built a fast native cross-platform open-source image viewer called Luminous in Rust/Slint UI. The main features: - Mainly focused on performance - Extensible via plugins - either shared libraries or IPC-based - Plugins such as SAM 3 for annotation and CLIP for semantic search/filtering - GPU-accelerated augmentation pipeline Still in active development. Would love your feedback! Repo: https://github.com/jaroslavszkandera/luminous
