@dang is this sort of commenting acceptable?

Try to back away from the situation and see how you're coming across here. It's a free product, and you're behaving in a really entitled way.

I'll happily donate to Inkscape but this is the first open source product that I have seen that uses gitlab!

That's truly odd, why?

Edit: thank you for your perspective.

Don't really know about macOS, but Ubuntu 18.04 is a distro with, what, 6 years old packages ? There have been a lot of bugfixes to the whole stack since then which will never make it to older Ubuntus - remember than the "stable" in linux distros means "does not change", not "does not crash".

That's poor reasoning for multiple reasons: - Krita also crashed on me when Ubuntu 18.04 was recent. - Most Krita crashes are on startup , before I do anything. - GIMP never crashes on me with heavy usage. In fact, few graphics manipulation apps crash on me. - Finally, like I said, Krita crashes often on the latest macOS. I think the "blame" is entirely on Krita. That said, I'm patient and understand software has bug…

you should try it with flatpak on a distro that old. Old distros are fine for servers but I would never use something that old as a desktop.

I switched from Inkscape to Affinity Designer and never looked back.

Sold me. Frick. I still love you Inkscape. EDIT: $55 is not Free as in INKSCAPE. Still looks dope AF.

If you do anything serious (aka make money with it) then $55 is a steal as long as you don't mind it being proprietary. Seems a lot of people tired of PS use it on mac

Why I can't close About window? :) https://i.imgur.com/XcQZsrx.gif

Good question. How did you get it in that state? Welcome screen and about screen at the same time?

I’d guess there’s a menu item to open the about screen, and that macOS’s global menus thus allow you to execute various commands before it would be possible to on any other platform.

Exactly!
