I can confirm, the first focus of Gimp must be the UX (which could be just cloned at this point), and the rest is not so bad to my liking. Right now Gimp is just unusable for anything serious.

Who cares about 30+ years at this point? It could be great back then, but right now it’s awful, especially if compared to Pixelmator Pro.

I have a suspicion theory that Photopea is not some magical one-man project that is so good in the browser, but just a Remote Desktop from browser. It looks very Photoshop CS2-ish to me, and in the very beginning it looked identical, iirc.

The only question that I have, will it break my old devices, so they would be forced out of the iMessages ecosystem? I believe that would happen. I don’t use it heavily, but that’s one of the reasons I keep an iPhone these days. The other r

Bullshit. Russia has no democracy, even in the minds of its citizens, not to say in the government. It never had and it may never have democracy. At least, until Russia exists in its current shape of form. My bet is that they have a chance

I have multiple files, by the way. And as a recent org user I’m not quite sure what is better. It feels like org designed with huge files in mind, although for me it works with multiple files as well.

Oh yeah, as if Russians were very very different before the TV box was invented. They always home brew despotic tsars. E.g Ivan Grozny aka The Terrible [1] was long before the TV, and it’s not the one and the only example, just the famous o

It’s a pleasure to see western media writing Kyiv correctly, not as it was before, the incorrect Russian spelling you might encounter everywhere. It took time for masses to learn, but it feels more widespread now than it was just two years

If you ever read ‘NATO Expanded’ it’s a Russian narrative. NATO never expanded, its members ask to join NATO because they don’t want their sovereign states to be occupied by barbarians as it happened with Ukraine’s east. Or they don’t want

To Russians, it’s always someone else who is responsible. The will, organisation, and moral courage come first. Lack of secure communication comes after that. If Russians had any of that, they won’t even need the communication means in the

What would you call the other wars then? - Against Georgia (2008) - against Ichkeria, twice (1994, 1999) - against Afghanistan (Dec 24, 1979 – Feb 15, 1989) Just to name a few. ‘As a Russian, I’d rather avoid any responsibility for the acti

Thank you for the recommendation. As the opposite, more minimalistic approach, I started to create different thematic feeds in newsfeed (a terminal reader), and I quite like the result. I check different sources, but it demotivates me to sp

My train of thought was similar to this, but I’m worried about my eyes. Although I’m not sure whether it’s worse than me looking at a regular screen all day long.
