Are you by any chance referring to upcoming Inkscape 1.0 based on GTK3 which has native Wayland support?

GTK3 should work natively on macOS, I look forward for re-use again Inkscape natively on it, when I have to rush because a tight deadline Inkscape is much more faster than Illustrator for my workflow. The version available on Macports is truly ugly on a 4K monitor.

When is Inkscape ditching the undead GTK2?

Further proof that you don't see reality, you see what you want to see.

I was just correcting him as I always do. Nothing more, nothing less.

There's the starshipeleven we all know!

I really like Inkscape, but it bothers me that the Linux builds are far less stable than on Windows (glitchy UI, frequent crashes). I just run the Windows build in Wine for this reason, but also because the UI is more compact, and window/UI states are remembered between sessions.

Looking forward to the next stable release though.

Too complex for the average Android device usecase. Most people won't be making professional vector graphics on a smartphone or tablet.

Not being able to draw or make good pictures with any tool (physical or otherwise) does not make you stupid.

What makes a person stupid, frankly is calling yourself such publicly. It is along the lines of if you think you can’t you will not.

Have you tried HomeBrew?

I gave up on MacPorts, if HomeBrew doesn’t have it I would likely download right from the Inkscape site.

It could also just be bad self-esteem.

Which admittedly does make people act like they are stupid. But it's not a 100% permanent issue, it's sometimes possible to get over it, so it's better I guess.

Never used Homebrew however the latest version of Inkscape is available only on MacPorts so far.
