MODERATORS
Are there other open source projects near feature parity with GIMP, though?
There are certainly other commercial software, like Affinity, and certainly some shady Photoshop clones like Photopea (and it does work really well) but nothing like GIMP, as far as I'm aware.
Stuart Semple’s company has something cooking. I have Affinity pirated, and I’m going to see which one I prefer before spending the money on either.
It's been my understanding that the general populace has been asking the developers of GIMP for years now to overhaul the UI and make it much friendlier to use, and the answer came back, "No, stop asking."
The biggest problem with a GIMP UI overhaul is that the core team is only 2 people.
That's fairly common with open source projects. How do those two people treat contributors? How do they react to pull requests?
