I've found perfetto [1] to be a excellent modern alternative to gpuvis.

Does

  Right Click -> Open Image in New Tab

not work for you? It works for me, and is how I expect to have to open nearly all images. [0]

Looks like the issue is with the ?raw=true at the end of the URL

Mostly (2021)

Edit: dismiss my comment.

There are several links to 404 pages in credits section which makes me think this project is a total slop. Hope I'm wrong.

I dont think it is slop - Mike Sartain has a pretty lengthy history including working at Valve. The README file's last commit was from 5 years ago, which is likely why some of the links 404

Thanks! Edited my comment above.

Still one of the better free options for kernel-side GPU debugging on Linux. Reading ftrace/perf events into a timeline gives you a view of the GPU scheduler that neither Chrome tracing nor vendor tools really match. Pairs nicely with perfetto for the system-level picture. The amdgpu/i915 event parsing has aged surprisingly well for Mesa work.
