      Tenacity, not audacity. Audacity got took over by a company with questionable record and tried to add telemetry into it. Tenacity was the OS fork which stayed true to principles.

      GIMP may not be your bag, but it’s highly used and many find it has much higher quality features than the alternatives. UI may not be popular, but it doesn’t prevent it being a solid bit of open source software.

      Btw, what steps have you taken to improve open source graphics software? It’s easy to bash, it’s harder to learn and contribute.

      Open source contributors > open source advocates > grateful open source users > almost everyone else > open source critics

        One doesn’t need to be a dev to have opinions about ease of use of a piece of software, don’t be dense.

          That is true, but to get free software made by people in their free time and say “this is rubbish” is a little ungrateful.

          “Here, have this free food…”. " ewww gross, that is so bad".

              Considering I know many artists that use it as first choice, I know you’re wrong.

              It’s good software, you just don’t like it.

                  Blender is for models, not art. It’s different software. It’s great at what it does. Expecting that because one open source project can beat proprietary then all can is a pretty shallow view. A project relies on volunteers, sacrifice and funding.

                  You’re saying it’s bad because no one you know uses it doesn’t suggest no-one uses it, just you don’t know the users of it. Maybe your circle is as open minded to software as you are. Similar people surround themselves with each other. It says more about you than the software.

                    You can die on this hill if you want to. Gimp has its reputation amongst the public, and it’s not for it’s user friendly UI. Maybe you like the jank, but that doesn’t mean it’s optimal.

                    Also, another thing open source projects need is feedback from the public. The UI being horrid is feedback, and just because you feel the need to white knight and feel personally offended by this feedback doesnt make the feedback invalid. You can complain about the phrasing used, but if you use that as reason to disregard the feedback or get defensive and accusatory towards the person (the “what have YOU done” bit was particularly irrelevant) then you’re part of the problem regardless how much you feel you’re the solution.
