As someone who uses GIMP very effectively for commercial work, I am increasingly feeling like people who say that GIMP isn’t a capable alternative are simply ignorant of it’s capabilities. Yeah, it doesn’t work like Photoshop. Yeah, it doesn’t work like Affinity Photo. Yeah, it doesn’t work like Photopea.

But yeah, it does work, and works well. If you apply a bit of patience to learn how it works, then it’s also very easy to use, eventually. Maybe it doesn’t cover all the use-cases, but it’s ignorant to say that it categorically isn’t capable for commercial use.

i have found gimp very intuitive over the years, but inkscape has left me totally be befuddled which is a shame because ad*be illustrator was my first digital design love

GIMP dev are working hard, and things seems slow as they just redone the base to be more future proof.

Krita is nice. IDK how it compares to commercial products, but ctrl-c + ctrl-v works like you’d expect it to

Didn’t GIMP get a big update recently?
