Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    I'm so sorry that you feel the $0.00 you've spent on GIMP's development were not well spent

    Just because something’s free doesn’t make it immune to criticism.

    [–] Denvil@lemmy.one 34 points 4 months ago (1 children)

    Is it really criticism if you just say "is bad I hate it"

    [–] Cypher@lemmy.world -4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

    The UI is atrocious, the shortcuts are mind blowingly shite and every fucking tutorial on it assumes knowledge.

    There’s a reason Gimp has near zero market share. Pirated Photoshop versions have a higher market share and for good reason.

    Oh and where the fuck is the draw circle tool? OH no you just use an ellipse and STFU and make a circle tool on a button you nerds.

    And yet thousands of people have used it constructively for years. They must ask be, like, super humans I guess

    And if it was a better product millions would be using it.

    [–] Chee_Koala@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

    And if it was an even better product, billions would be using it. Mathematical!

    That wasn't criticism, that was a rant

    I have the best wishes for all the developers and what they make after gimp experiment ends.
