Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?
chiliedogg@lemmy.world 1 day agoI used lots of FOSS software, and GIMP is by far the worst I’ve come across when compared against its paid competition.
I hate Adobe the company, but Photoshop really is the gold standard.
Its not FOSS but if you need a work alterative to GIMP I use Photopea a lot. Works as a PWA too.
I’ve been using design software for over 25 years; Photoshop has been there for the majority but I’ve often tried coming back to GIMP here and there, but it’s never grabbed me in a useable way.

GIMP certainly has a lot of UI problems that seem to have persisted for no other reason than “nobody got around to fixing it”
Also, it’s 2025 and you STILL can’t just draw a circle lmfao

That’s funny. I have no problem drawing circles in GIMP.
