The name alone won't turn people off, and from what I've heard from people who are actually experienced in making digital art (unlike me), Krita is extremely well-suited for the task, while Gimp's UI is very awkward for people who aren't used to it

@phi1997 @srfirehorseart @DrPen in my defense, Gimp was just the first image editing app that sprung to mind lol

@phi1997 At first glance it appears that Krita is aimed at people who want to make digital paintings. My experience (10 years ago) of Photoshop was that it was aimed at photographers and graphic designers. I also tested out Illustrator for package design. Gimp presumably covers that group. So these programs are aimed at different niches? @tydalforce @DrPen
