It seems like the most popular of these clones is https://jigglypaint.com which looks to openly acknowledge it was inspired by WigglyPaint.

I’m curious if this article is directed towards them or the clones that are impersonating the WigglyPaint brand.

I think it was actually just a straight mobile clone as I see "WigglyPaint" in the screenshots and the original Android app was called WigglyPaint as well based on the url (/apps/details?id=io.wigglypaint.android). Probably got more popular than they were expecting and decided to pivot a bit.

This is great. Some good nostalgia vibes.

The fact that it’s not exhaustive and is a reflection of the creator’s taste is a feature, not a bug.

People sometimes do things because they enjoy doing them, even if they aren’t particularly good at them.

I have two problems with that. One is, you can do what you like quietly and without disturbing anyone around you. Second is the Dunning Kruger effect: witnessing it first hand is never fun.

And both of those problems are yours, not your neighbor’s.

To your neighbor, doing it badly is still doing the thing.

This is great, well done.
