Gimp is not ready and the best alternative is the Windows only intensionally Linux incompatible Affinity Photo.

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Gimp has been fine for many tasks for the last 20+ years, yes it's not Photoshop and may never be a 1:1 replacement.

But I'm sure that has never been the goal.

I don't know, around 2002 it was only a bit behind, well outside of the weird ui and since then unfortunately not much has changed for Gimp. Back then I felt that they were quite interchangeable.

It's 2024 and GIMP will only now be getting the ability to do non-destructive editing through adjustment layers. It has been fine for many simple tasks, but for anything that's more complex than a Lemmy shitpost, it's been rough for that reason alone

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And yet without that "critical feature" people have still used Gimp for much more advanced editing.

[–] miss_brainfarts@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 months ago

Yeah. And I bet most, if not all of them would've been a lot happier with that feature. It makes things so much easier, so much more flexible.
