The system said I should check to make sure the puzzle was solvable without guessing. I did, and I believe it is, but please correct me if I am mistaken. I may have inadvertently applied "I know-the-solution-already" logic. :)

Moderate lookahead for the red bits top right I think?

Line and color logic to 94%.

There are eight blank squares in rows 1-4, columns 19-20. Vertically, there are three red squares there. Since rows 2-4 end with a 2, the only way to add to 3 squares in that region is to use the 1 in row 1. So row 1 columns 1-17 is dots.

From there, line logic to finish.
