Does anyone know why it is so excruciatingly slow? I always just switch to Windows to use Inkscape but it would be good to know the reason.
I think it has something to do with gtk3 under mac. This will probably be fixed with the gtk4 port.
That's downright impressive!
I hoped to see CMYK support in the release notes. There is an extension that provides PDF export with a hack but it would be great to see native support. https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ExportPDFCMYK
Inkscape is fantastic. It, Blender and Krita has completely freed me from paying subscription fees for creative tools. I used to be an Adobe Suite (PS, AI, AE, PP) user, but I've yet to encounter a situation where I've felt limited by not having access to those "premium" applications any more. There are issues of course - memory leaks and odd GUI handling on Windows in particular - but I've had the same sort of issue…

I have been using Inkscape on mac for years now and never had problems.
Inkscape is slow as molasses on macOS for many people, and has been as long as I can remember. It's faster to run it remote on my Linux server (SSH tunnel + X11 forwarding) than native on macOS. It's a shame because it's very responsive on native Linux.

I know Krita has a decent animation tool, but it's only raster, and I haven't encountered a really good vector tool yet.

darktable + Hugin have me covered for photography. I just want better Wayland support. Specifically I'm waiting for Wayland to get color management merged--even if it only supports standard definition and old ICC profile formats as a stop-gap.
And with respect to color management and Wayland with the rumored next release of nvidia drivers potentially supporting Wayland that's about the only thing that would stop me from switching on all my machines. I know there is an open issue for working on that in both the Wayland official protocols and wl-roots so hopefully soon.
It's nice to see all the new features that are being added; they really feel like the project might be going from niche tool for SVG fanboys to actually usable by a wide variety of graphics people.
So far I've used inkscape for almost anything, from animated web graphics to 3D-Printing (OpenSCAD lets you import SVG files directly and extrude them into 3D). I'd almost like to call it "the blender of 2D"

I don't disagree with most of what you're saying, but I wish there was a decent open-source 2d Vector animation software that could compete with Flash/Animate. I know Krita has a decent animation tool, but it's only raster, and I haven't encountered a really good vector tool yet.
