Oh, it was supposed to be rage bait. I actually thought it was quite funny.

I recognized myself from a decade ago and this post quite a bit. It uhh didn’t go very well until through years of suffering I figured out the perfect setup for me and how to properly deal with all the little issues.

I know it sounds dumb but my Ubuntu used to break like every six months and I had to always reinstall it.

Yeah, but it runs in a browser, chokes on larger projects and Ivan is an asshole.

Unintuitive.

I heard of photoshop when I was 13 and I installed a pirated version, just started clicking around and I always found what I wanted in a minute.

10 Years later, I switch 100% to Linux, I have to do some light design work, I open gimp - I CLICK AROUND FOR HALF AN HOUR FOR SOMETHING SIMPLE - can’t find it to save my life. Give up and google it, it gives me a reply like yours “just go to a completely unrelated menu to conjure a hack out of your ass that barely resembles what you originally intended to do”.

Fuck that UX man. I am so glad pirated photoshop works well in wine nowadays and I have a VM with a legit Adobe suite if I ever need to actually whip up my license for some reason (fuck adobe as well btw.)

I pray that one day there is a real competitor that works natively on Linux. I pay, take my hard earned money every month, whatever it takes, just make it intuitive and reach near feature parity with PS.

If anybody is still reading, sorry for venting, the GIMPs always trigger me, have a nice day.

Same dude… I fucking hate gtk apps on kde because of the fucked up theming shit piss cunt wankers
