xv is an amazing, minimalistic, old school, open source, but not free software, image viewer.
it is available in gentoo by doing `emerge xv` so i use it since i found it about 20 years ago.
when i have mounted nfs partitions and the connection is slow or unavailable, all other image viewers are not able to even load themselves. xv is always available and responsive.
though it is not free software but i can build it with png and other modernizing patches made by community. which stresses power of gentoo, it can automate downloading xv and applying patches which is perfectly legal.
overall i think it is a best image viewer, and it can also do some editing like cropping.
