Edge case, I know, but I have an application that started life in RCS, and migrated to Git. Long enough ago that I had forgotten that the RCS directory was there. I just recently started using diffuse, and tried a 'diffuse -m', and it found the old RCS version to compare against. I spent quite some time trying to figure out where version 1.17 came from... I think it would be nice if it was possible to specify the order that diffuse uses to select which version control system it tries first. That...

color contrast seems better IRRC, should be by default for everyone

You can customise the colours using a resource file. Resources are described in chapter 4 of the manual: http://diffuse.sourceforge.net/manual.html To quickly try it out, create a ~/.config/diffuse/diffuserc file (or %HOME%.config\diffuse\diffuserc on Microsoft Windows) with the following contents then restart Diffuse (of course, you will likely wish to choose some more pleasing colours): color difference_1 1.0 0.0 0.0 float line_difference_alpha 0.5

Differences highlighting needs more contrast, so it is easier to spot

Passwordless Authentication and Passwordless Security
It’s no secret — passwords can be a real headache, both for the people who use them and the people who manage them. Over time, we’ve created hundreds of passwords, it’s easy to lose track of them and they’re easily compromised. Fortunately, passwordless authentication is becoming a feasible reality for many businesses. Duo can help you get there.

My current diff app of choice for software development. Works great with both git and svn. Directory diff could be a nice addition. Author provided good support when I needed it.

I was looking for a visual diff tool able to process four files at the same time. Correct me if I am wrong, but only Diffuse does graphical comparison on more than 3 files. And I like it!

Up to now I mainly used meld, but now I am using more and more diffuse because diffuse doesn't ignore differences in line ending style and it allows you to set manual alignments. The only feature I am currently missing in diffuse is a way to compare 2 or 3 directories.
