Dear god I wish I could get off windows. The last thing keeping me is photo editing. I tried gimp but it just does not compete (speaking of witch, open source Flickr/500px clone when?). I am looking for anything, even closed source, that works on Linux and can rival Photoshop/affinity photo.
edit: I get people like me are frustrating, it’s always the next thing, but I truly think I can reluctantly deal with inkscape and make the switch if I find something
There’s Photopea, it runs in the browser and has most of the features from Photoshop. I’m pretty sure there’s even an unofficial offline version on GitHub as well.
Maybe check out Krita.
Although what’s wrong with GIMP? It might not be pretty, but I thought it was pretty feature-full.
Nothing wrong with GIMP by itself, but when compared to Photoshop, it is not really the same. Photoshop’s tools have “works like magic” feel to them, its hard to describe. Gimp in comparison does feel a bit rough. Also it has a few missing features for the really advanced users.
lickr/500px clone when?
Pixelfed?
