The slow and steady climb to 3.0 culminates in the most modernized version of GIMP yet.

Why are 50% of the words in this article, covering 20 years of work, about making svgs of icons?
Terrible.
Haven't watched it yet, but DMD has a number of vids covering this, from plugin compatibility to features. Here's the RC1 vid: https://youtu.be/nLjlgHemaco

Seems like they're still playing catch-up. Photoshop is the only Adobe software I haven't cut out of my life. But it seems I will still be stuck with it for some time.

Krita is quite far ahead of GIMP at this point. I'm not a pro Photoshop user but if you are and you're looking at alternatives, that's the place to look.

Bring out the GIMP

Gimp Is Maybe Photoshop

No GIMP.
Pronounced "Jimp"

the more unused whitespace a tool menu has, the better the UX guy! /s

Heh. I understand that all the UX people to join the GnuIMP project have died of shock...

Pity about the cringey name.
BrikoX@lemmy.zip · 22 pts · 1y
It's an acronym: GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP).

Dunno why you're being downvoted. It's very obviously deliberately chosen to make 12 year olds giggle.
Lumisal@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y
Like GNU Linux Image Enhancement Manager

There was a fork with a different name. It bombed.

The Glimpse Editor project shut down because there weren’t enough contributors, and the founder didn’t have enough time to do everything.

…and yeah it wasn’t just a rename, their github readme suggests they were making UX, accessibility, settings, and plugin changes to make it “enterprise ready” (not sure on the specific details of that though).

It really is.
MajorHavoc@programming.dev · 1 pts · 1y
Yeah.
The project name embodies several of the worst aspects of the FOSS community, and none of the best.
It's a shared embarrassment, by association, to many of us.
