Yeah, that kind of attitude is surely going to help the development of GIMP. There are lots of alternatives to Photoshop these days, free or paid, open source or not, and most of them are vastly better than GIMP in many ways. Yes I have used almost all of them. I won't be surprised if GIMP is forgotten to oblivion in a few years and only mentioned in forums like hacker news by amateurs who for some reason loves this abusive relationship.
