I’m still rooting for them, but I know it’s a lot of work to ask from volunteers. As a casual user of the GIMP I feel like it hasn’t changed that drastically in the last 15 years. The biggest change I can remember is them migrating from separate windows to a unified window.
Hard to compare.
The two apps just have a different workflow…
Well yeah I was answering for me though, not the whole internet.
Gimp has a work flow that I can’t get into, photoshop clicks better. For you, it could be the opposite and that’s great.
I’m not selling photoshop, I don’t even use either anymore. It would be stupid not to try to make gimp work for you first.
Depends if you learn gimp or PS first.
Like if you start life with Linux, windows seems weird
GIMP doesn’t support non-destructive editing, which is a major PITA tbh
They aim to introduce that in version 3.0, which they say will be a complete overhaul of the app.
Non-destructive editing through live adjustment layers is definitely the single most useful feature any editing software can have.
That alone makes life so much easier.

Well yeah, that’s the whole point. It’s harder to learn another workflow when you’re already in the mindset of the other.
