GIMP gets the work done. I've never had an issue I couldn't address with its tools, but it's clear the UI was crafted by coders. I'm glad for this approach.

I'm pretty sure 95% of photoshop users only use a feature subset thats also available in GIMP (except for maybe the latest generative infill)
I don't know the current status, but at least last time I checked you could not have strokes/outline on text, and afterwards change the text :(
It's such a little thing that makes gimp annoying to use. And it affects a broad audience. Wedding cards or youtube title thumbnails.
Maybe it works now. I hope.
Non destructive layer resize works now, right?

#23GIMP is the only program that I miss when switched from linux to mac. And GIMP 2.2 was just a perfect for my needs back then

There's a mac build for GIMP: https://download.gimp.org/gimp/v3.2/macos/gimp-3.2.4-arm64.d...

I don't think it's contentious to say that the user interface is a huge part of using a program.
Re: Photo GIMP – A Patch for GIMP 3 for Photoshop Users
#26I am glad someone is putting in this effort. Many years ago, there was another project called GIMPshop to make GIMP's interface more accessible to Photoshop users. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMPshop They taught Photoshop at school, so I found it easier to use GIMPshop than regular GIMP.
That's actually what I thought this submission was. Didn't remember what it was called, so I didn't realize PhotoGIMP wasn't GIMPshop.
It's funny that both of these kept GIMP in the name when the name itself has spawend a different fork.

The disadvantage is that then you never learn how GIMP works and will forever frustrated it's not Photoshop. Sometimes it's better to take the hard way.
I don't want to learn how GIMP works. I want to edit photos.

It's an offshoot patch for the original project so the usage makes sense.
At least put disclaimer and code of conduct for got sake
Why would there need to be a code of conduct or disclaimer when it's clearly stated it's a patch for a photo editing product called gimp?
