My problem isn't that the UI isn't "intuitive", it's that it's bad - eg. the annoying "layer boundary" thing and the tendency for shortcuts to do different things depending on where you focused last. I don't know if UX people have a name for it, but I get particularly infuriated by the feeling that I'm being punished for learning shortcuts. Youtube is the other thing that continually annoys me like this. Edit: In the interest of balance, GIMP's UI has got much better in recent years (single window mode being a particularly massive improvement). Edit2: I note that fixing the layer boundary issue is on their roadmap so, although it continues to be annoying for now, they can't be reasonably be accused of being dogmatic or intransigent about it.
