They said image editor, not photo editor. Vector images are still images.
There's a comparison to photoshop.

#22Just in case you are looking for a commercial alternative to Inkscape with a more modern UI and Chromium-based rendering engine, check out my project Boxy SVG: https://boxy-svg.com The next version (to be released in 2-3 weeks) is going to introduce full support for filters and color swatches. In the upcoming 12 months I expect to reach full feature parity with Inkscape.
Re: Inkscape 1.0 Beta 1
#23Inkscape is my go to image editor. The UI is reminiscent of the old Macromedia Fireworks, with a paradigm that feels much nicer (to me) than Photoshop et al. I downloaded the beta pessimistically thinking that they still wouldn't have native OSX Menu support (I've been using the non-updated 0.91+devel+osmenu fork/branch forever), but was pleasantly surprised to see full OSX integration in this beta. Great job guys!
I thought Inkscape was an alternative to Illustrator and other vector drawing programs, didn't know people were using it for photo editing.

That isn't open source? Get out of here.

Monthly subscription is used only by the web app. The desktop app requires a single payment, after that you can continue using it and receive updates for free.
Re: Inkscape 1.0 Beta 1
#29Inkscape is my go-to example of why FLOSS is great: * Learn how to use it once * Keep using it for a life time * Not completely changing interface every major release * Keeps getting better (some commercial software seems to bloat beyond repair) * Available on many platforms * All of the above for FREE Now I dont need to do vector graphics every week, not even every month. But for those couple of times a year it's go…
Being able rapidly and precisely build an item in 2D CAD, then do the graphic design component on Inkscape is amazing.
More recently I’m moving to do the graphic design part in Affinity Designer due to a couple of irritating bugs in Inkscape... but it doesn’t have export to DXF... But Inkscape is what taught me vector graphics, and I’m still using it as my default vector graphics app in my day job as a laser cutter operator-extraordinaire.

...and the Web App does not work on Firefox. Maybe call it Chromium-App then?
Besides, everything seems to suggest that Firefox will be out of the market in the next couple of years. At least unless Mozilla adopts Chromium engine like Microsoft and Opera did.
