Comment on The problem with GIMP
livus@mander.xyz 4 weeks agoHaving spent ages trying to adopt it and failing like 25 years ago it’s just crazy to me that every time I give it another chance, it still doesn’t have non destructive editing and is still a non-intuitive UI from hell. It feels like they want it to be like this.

They’ve been working on GIMP 3.0 for over a decade, which has non-destructive editing, as well as an upgrade to the UI toolkit (although actual UI changes are still to-do). They don’t want it to be this way, development has just been insanely slow. Mostly due to lack of developers and donations, although that has been changing recently.
They planned to have GIMP 3.0 out by May, but with so many delays it might be a few months yet.

Good to know, will keep a watch for it.
I really want to use it but always end up closing it in frustration and firing up photoshop.
