It was born as a part of KDE Office Suite which hadn't wide usage. After community of Krita users grew rapidly (for an FOSS piece without marketing) it was separated from the bundle. Also a good boost was a publishing at Steam in the first month of their Software Store.
- fyfy18 8y agoThe Steam version is a nice way to sell open source software. It has an additional interface designed for tablets, which is open source, but the free builds from krita.org don't include it.
- voltagex_ 8y agoIt's also on the Windows/Microsoft Store which means I get auto-updates.
- raghukamath 8y agoThe current steam version is same as the free version, with steam version you get automatic update, The tablet version is Krita Gemini, i think it is the older version, i don't know if it is still on steam, as recently steam version was updated
