IMHO the problems in the usability of the software go far deeper than simply switching the widgets.
This is not to shit on Gimp! It's a completely adequate package of various image processing algorithms.
However, this does not make it a replacement for Photoshop for a large segment of users.
I've been using Photoshop for 30 years and tried to use gimp for 25 years :D
- tambourine_man 2y agoRoughly the same amount of years here, same conclusion. I'd love to ditch Adobe for an open stack. I've day-dreamed about creating an open alternative to Photoshop many times. It's a daunting task, it would take many years of dedication for reaching even a mediocre competitor to the 90s Photoshop.
