Who would have thought that changing the toolkit API with every minor version would be such a hassle in moving GIMP to a more modern codebase For me, GTK is dead since 4.0 - GDK_DPI_SCALE is no more and fractional scaling is a sad, blurry joke - I literally can't use any software based on it with my 123DPI panel (requiring 1.28125x scaling) anymore.Last edited by kiffmet; 29 August 2022, 03:55 AM.

I like how everybody is talking about GIMP slow development ignoring the fact that this version brought initial CMYK support. One of the most requested feature is finally starting to take shape.

Not having legacy libraries on your system lowers the system maintenance burden and should have no effect on your artwork.

There is a typo is this article: "alternative to the likes of Adobe Photoshop" should have been "alternative to the likes of MS PAINT"

well, considering that usability is a major factor in any application I would still consider that quite sad

I think it's Krita!
(even being proved that for some extra-pro rare *special* cases it may lack one or two needed features)
It's - in my opinion - a better image manipulator that GIMP...
But that's just my personal opinion...
