Just a reminder even PewDiePie stopped using Adobe products after 15 years of daily usage. He switched to GIMP, but that is not my main point. I found it interesting how he gets even charged for cancelling the service! Look, I’m not a PewDiePie fan and usually don’t watch his videos. But this one was pretty fun. The video with timestamp at the segment I was talking about: https://youtu.be/pVI_smLgTY0?t=329
In his most recent video he complains that switching to GIMP was too difficult
I love Foss projects and I try to be as positive as I can be. There are several programs that while having a learning curve are actually usable, but gimp is so user hostile its insane.
How in the ever living fuck does it not have a god damn circle tool. Why the fuck can’t I rotate selections in real time, I need to precalculate the angle and pray it’s correct.
And those are just 2 things I encountered while trying to make a shitty image of pinkie pie as Dante Alighieri 2 days ago. I can’t imagine having to actually learn it to replace Photoshop for work.
And it’s so intentionally shitty, inkscape has a UX that’s at least 10 times better, 1000 times since they actually let you draw a god damn circle ffs.
Why would I draw a circle in a photo editing suite?
Maybe you need something different?
It’s actually a valid thing to need. If nothing else, circular masks are much easier to do when you don’t have to go and search for a png of a circle for a task that should’ve been over by the time you hit enter in the search bar. I understand GIMP is made with entirely volunteer work, and people shouldn’t be hostile towards anything FOSS unless given good reason, but there are very good reasons people cannot switch to GIMP.
It isn’t though. People that learn on Photoshop expect everything to work like Photoshop and when it doesn’t it’s that program’s fault.
Nah Gimp is actually a terrible tool
