It appears this really was the hot take of the day. Stick around for long threads on boring shit.

@Craigp Do you have recommendations for alternatives that are good for photo editing? I hated using a product named that way, but there didn't seem to be good alternatives, and still I don't know of any off the top of my head...

@Craigp using gimp is in itself an act of masochism so dark i wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy, so maybe that is more of an issue than the naming scheme …

@Craigp I mean ... It still doesn't have decent support for text resizing and positioning. In 2026. And then there's still the problem of DRM-infused professional font foundries not supporting Linux. It's a nice enough basic photo editor but it's missing so many bottom-rung basic features. It's never been anything like comparable unless you have a very narrow subset of tasks to limit the comparison.
