- omoikane 2y agoThe main news is that Gimp made a release candidate for 3.0: https://www.gimp.org/news/2024/11/06/gimp-3-0-RC1-released/ https://www.gimp.org/news/2024/11/06/gimp-3-0-RC1-released/ I see that a few people have submitted that link, but they don't seem to be getting much attention: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=gimp%203.0%20rc1&sort=byDate&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... So this article is boosting some visibility to the original news, while having little content otherwise.
- wrs 2y agoWhy, because the only 3.0 features it mentions are SVG icons in the toolbar and the plugin API? No, you're not the only one.
- mikae1 2y agoAnd not the non-destructive editing that is the big thing IMO. I will likely finally say bye to Photoshop. Lightroom was replaced with darktable two years ago.
- eco 2y agoI remember excitedly reading the announcement for gegl that was finally going to bring non-destructive editing to gimp. If I'd been told it was going to take at least 20 years to actually happen I would not have believed you. But whatever, I'm glad it's finally here.
- archerx 2y agoIf you want to replace Photoshop with something open source, I recommend Krita, everytime I give gimp a try it ends up being a frustrating waste of time.
