Comment on photopea.com now locks out users blocking ads

  I did suggest many things, from how to crop in Krita, using ImageMagick, that Gimp is fully capable of cropping (OP refused to use Gimp for that task because it’s “shit” in his eyes), how to look up open source alternatives on GitHub (I found a bunch, including a python GUI application running locally), etc.

  OP made a many BS claims, by insisting that he needs batch processing but when suggesting to self host, he refuses this by saying that he’s only cropping 5 images.

    I’m envious of your energy if you’re willing to spend it to set up a self hosted thing to batch process 5 images when there’s an off the shelf solution that works just fine but has ads. Sometimes the job is big enough to be annoying to do it one way but not too big to be worth the trouble of setting up an entire GitHub repo locally.

      It’s really no energy at all to just install Krita or Gimp to crop 5 images.
