Have you donated? Made a merge request? Bluntly, there’s your answer. ;-)
Why would I donate or contribute to something that I don't use? I'm not even an artist.
Indeed, why even comment for that matter?

I was curious about it, so I asked. Why is that a problem?
Software quality is a function of the effort put into it. A generic “is it good yet?” question is not especially useful. It depends on a lot of things.
Don’t take it personally, I probably read the same question at slashdot in ‘97.

#164I installed Inkscape the other day to try to rescale and save an simple SVG for the web. When I took a look at the text saved in the file, I was pretty shocked to discover it saved the entire path of the file in the file . In other words, it saves a directory structure that could contain your username, the name of the project you're working on, what company you're working for, etc. Felt like a pretty shocking invasio…
Always run your files through strings before sending to the web.
Can you elaborate? I googled variations of "run files through strings" and this link is the only thing I could find but still unclear

That might have been me also.

#167Inkscape is good enough for most cases. And it has been for a long time. Like audacity, like firefox, like musescore, like vlc, like krita, like blender... You don't need to be the best, you just need to be good enough and eventually people will help or pay developers; given enough time it may eventually become the most popular on its category.
Blender might be the biggest winner in that list.
VLC and Krita are both great and popular, but I'd guess that VLC is a closer analogue to Blender as far as market share vs. commercial alternatives (e.g. Maya and Cinema 4D in the case of Blender.)
