We are in striking range of killing python2

finally, feels something like 20 years!

I really like those new icons - Yeah, they're kinda flat, but they actually have colour.

They've basically taken peak 2005 icons, and improved on them.

Very nice.

[-] FizzyOrange@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago

I agree, those are fantastic icons. Very clear.

This is awesome news! Can't wait to try it out in the morning!

Is there any reason to use this now that Krita exists, sane name and all?

[-] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 9 points 5 months ago

IMHO Krita is more of a drawing app (that's what I use it for) and GIMP (I wish I could make a wish upon the monkey's paw and get it renamed... To Libre Graphics Manipulation App. Or -- LiGMA) is more for editing stuff

But yo'ure entitled to your own opinion ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I've taken to calling it LiGMA/GIMP myself.

[-] Flamekebab@piefed.social 2 points 5 months ago

When I tried to use Krita a few months ago I couldn't set the white point in the levels tool. I looked it up and the tool apparently doesn't exist. That makes it awful for processing scanned artwork in my workflow.

Soooo, The GIMP.
