Krita is old enough to drive, to drink (in civilized places), to vote.
- Dalewyn 3y agoNot sure if you replied to the wrong comment. I actually agree with y'all that GIMP's GUI is god damn horrendous, and that kind of extends to anything that GTK is involved with or used in. Something about GTK at a philosophical level does not lend itself to a good, human design. Anyway, I'm just pointing out that GIMP came before GTK and that GTK exists first and foremost to serve GIMP. I hate when history is altered, whether out of simple ignorance or more ulterior motives.
- oblio 3y agoI was adding to your reply to the GP comment. Also, for Gimp - Gtk, that was true for Gtk 1. Gtk 2 went beyond this to serve Gnome and random apps and Gtk 3 is quite far from the Gimp world. Gimp 3 is about a port to Gtk 3... 10+ years after the release of Gtk 3.
- walteweiss 3y agoWhy won’t they port to GTK-4? Why port to already obsolete thing? If you’re so incredibly slow to implement, why not change the direction midways? I believe it’s not like porting to QT, so it would be dramatically different (if it is, I don’t know), it’s just different versions of the same library after all.
