minus-squareZink@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·17 hours agoI assume you are right. So then I ask myself, for my own occasional use, would a standalone version of Photoshop from 2015 cover my needs? Yeah, I think it would! I was always a much heavier user of Lightroom than Photoshop anyway. I still need to choose between the FOSS options there.
minus-squarescarabic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 hours agoMore than a decade on that. I would say the usability is so bad that they are not on track to catch up ever unless something changes. Every year or so I download GIMP and try to use it for something basic, and I always fail and give up.

minus-squarekurwa@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 day agoI wonder if it would be feasible to create a different UI on top of the existing GIMP backend.

And UI usability.
