I have been a loyal Gimp user since early days. I never found the MacOS experience to match that of the Linux or Windows environments.
Pixelmator has been a suitable and far superior replacement. It might not be Photoshop level capabilities but it more than covers my requirements.
- janalsncm 4y agoTotally agreed. Specifically, I can never get the “ants” that should show up when you select something. It’s an ongoing bug that was just never fixed. So I just have to remember that a thing is selected. Quite irritating.
- nightfly 4y agoI've had the ants working in my install since 2.10.28
- janalsncm 4y agoJust updated and it seems to be fixed. I wish I could amend my complaint.
- Steuard 4y agoThe "ants" got fixed sometime in the past few months, I believe, and thank goodness: it really did make GIMP almost impossible to use for anything complicated enough to need GIMP. (But they've been working on my M1 Mac for a while now.)
- Rimintil 4y agoAffinity tools are great.
- lynndotpy 4y agoThis is my experience entirely. I've been using GIMP for most of my life, but a lot of little things are off on Macs. My GIMP experience translates nicely to Pixelmator
- WXLCKNO 4y agoI just use photopea in the browser these days. It's pretty much exactly Photoshop, at least for my non-advanced purposes.
