#52> Krita has all the bases covered, you only need to add these things and I can ditch GIMP/Photoshop. > The feature you are requesting is probably for Photo editing or manipulating images that are currently not in our focus. Looks like the author answered their own question as to why some people still aren't happy with the available options. After all, photo editing is what Photoshop was designed to do.
It doesn't appear this app is trying to be a straight up Photoshop replacement.
If that's what people are looking for they can go to GIMP. So I don't see how that answer specifically indicates why people would be unhappy with the situation on Linux.

Yes the same reason for the past two decades If anyone from Adobe is reading this, I would use CC with subscription on linux and advocate for licenses in my whole office if it was an option Cheers
You didn't get it right? Most of the customers who would switch are already using CC on Mac or Windows so why add the costs of maintenance and support for another platform. Aside from that, their code base is somewhat quirky, which would definitely increase the cost of porting
Can't disagree on anything you wrote. But if they leave an unfilled hole, the competitor that kills them could emerge from that hole.

And if Krita was Photoshop, I wouldn't use it for illustration.
I don't want a photo manipulation tool, I want a painting program. Sure Photoshop can do all the fancy brush stuff, it can have fancy blend modes and stuff, but the primary interface isn't designed with that in mind. It's a manipulation tool. Using it for illustration is using a very broad "jack-of-all-trades" program for something very focused, and that broad toolset honestly kind of gets in the way.
I'm invested in Krita's future now, but if I wasn't I certainly wouldn't be moving back to Photoshop. I need a tool that's specifically designed for drawing. Pre-CC Photoshop had reasonably decent Wine support, but I've never been tempted to load up an old copy for drawing.
To the extent that Krita is trying to replace anything, the problem that Krita is attempting to solve is that Linux doesn't have Clip Studio.

Re: Linux doesn't have Photoshop
#56> I started using Photoshop when I was in High School and obviously it was a ——- copy. I can only assume the censored portion read "pirated." Is the author concerned they would be admitting to a crime had they left it in? I'm not sure there are any other interpretations to "obviously it was a [...] copy" either, so I don't see why they bothered. Probably should have left that out entirely if they were worried.
There's no good way to "nudge nudge, wink wink" in a text medium. I thought the chosen technique was perfectly fine, it got the idea across without leaving anything legally actionable.
Adobe has in the past had a bit of tolerance for under-the-table copies. If you get hooked on PS at an early age there's a good chance you'll insist on it when you reach a position with a budget.
Re: Linux doesn't have Photoshop
#57In some ways Photoshop is losing relevance in the creative space. Adobe’s rent seeking has pissed off a lot of people and upstarts like Krita, DaVinci Resolve and Serif are making waves. Affinity Photo and Designer offer strong Photoshop and Illustrator alternatives on MacOS, Windows and even iPadOS (no plans for a Linux version however) when Adobe seem to struggle to get a half baked version of Photoshop on iPadOS.…
Its really a shame Affinity products are not on linux. I know lot of people who would ditch osx if there was decent typesetting software on linux.

#58Linux doesn’t really have a good alternative to InDesign. For photo editing I find that Darktable & Gimp serve me well enough. Fortunately, I don’t need to worry about CMYK any more.
Scribus, and I'm DocBook/LaTeX junkie. Might not work for everyone, but I put out a lot of long forms and policy stuff. I pipe through calibre for painless format shifting, as well.
It does not work for everyone unfortunately. Scribus is terrible for design work. Fine for setting prose but doing more complex layouts is pain. Unfortunately typesetting is so niche that there is no way it would get better.
I wish affinity was on linux.
Re: Linux doesn't have Photoshop
#59Hats off for developing such an amazing tool. The question not asked is "Why create another image editing tool on Linux?". When 'competing' with a gorilla like Photoshop, perhaps extending / rewriting Gimp would be a more effective way to produce a high quality tool, instead of fracturing the community. Not a criticism of the efforts, just the focus. It would be really great to have a FOSS alternative to the increasi…
If Gimp wasn't completely terrible, despite the decades of work that's been put into it, I'd give that some weight. But it's just not good, and it's not going to be. Better to start over than keep throwing good money after bad.
I tried Gimp but from an UX Perspective it is just a horrible mess. Its ways are so idiosyncratic its unbelievable. Power to those who use it, but it is hardly surprising that it never gained traction in the graphics industry.
Affinity Photo is the first true contender; It optimizes for reliable and recognizable workflow, and the devs are committing to keeping it lean.
I wish there was an foss alternative, but there isn’t. I would love to see an app build around image editing like Blender is doing for 3d.

Noob question, why is CMYK editing different from any other kind of editing? You can convert rgb to CMYK, every printer does it, so what's actually missing?
Well you want to see what you are doing. RGB shows more colors than you can print. Theoreticaly when if you have cmyk profile from your printer and calibrated monitor you should see somehow accurate representation of how will things get printed.
