Guess I'm in the minority. While Inkscape is incredibly powerful and a great OSS option for vector editing, the UI has simply never made sense to me. After using Illustrator for 10+ years, every time I try to do something in Inkscape I find myself either lost or frustrated that buttons and options don't do what I think they will. I feel like it's in the same land as Blender was before 2.8 (I'm a big fan of the 2.8 changes for usability).
- ramraj07 7y agoInkscape seems like a much more natural successor of something like Corel Draw, and as someone who grew up doing things on that program, inkscape has always made the most sense to me. So it's probably just familiarity than anything else. I can definitely attest that inkscape has a very deterministic and thoughtful UX and workflow process.
- EvanAnderson 7y agoI'll second this assessment. I used a ton of Corel Draw in the 90s thru the early 2000s. Inkscape feels like a spiritual successor. I was productive with it almost immediately.
