Because Photoshop is far superior to gimp for…. reasons? But Photoshop costs $$$$$, so this is like free.

Honestly, the only thing not to like about GIMP is the name. There was a fork a while ago, but that closed down.

Non-destructive transforms not existing is definitely a thing not to like about GIMP

  I hoped someone would correct me and tell me I am stupid and that of course GIMP has nondestructive transforms and then procede to explain how. I guess that trick doesn’t always work :p

  And pixel management.
  
  But Krita somehow fulfills that, configured correctly.
  
  There are also the high seas for those who want to sail! Old shops are very good, no ai stuff.

  @LegoBrickOnFire @plateee For raster layers, yes (at the moment). You can do non-destructive transforms on vector layers and link layers (so you could add an external PNG/JPEG/SVG/etc to a composition as a layer and then non-destructively transform it).
  Transforms are really a filter under the hood, so we have the infrastructure to make them all non-destructive. Just need to work on the UI elements. :)

  Nowadays you can do per-layer post-processing filters without baking

  If you’re a Mac user (like many designers) Pixelmator is an excellent alternative to PS, it’s lacking in some of the smart object/layer stuff I used to lean on heavily in adobe world (illustrator smart layers in ps used to be clutch in the old skewomorphic days).
