for reasons i still don't entirely understand, the script as it is now doesn't properly dispose of frames on my m1 max macbook pro (macos 12.4, imagemagick 7.1.0-29), resulting in this:

however, if i modify line 57 by using set on the dispose setting like this:

convert -background none -set dispose Background -delay 1x30 -loop 0 "${frame}"-*.gif "$gif"

it works 🎉

I needed to make the adjustment above for my m1 mbp. Thanks, @lafentres!
