Recently learned about Krita too, which is more for art but it’s nice

There’s a plugin for AI generation now

I wish we can get a Krita, Inkscape, GIMP ecosystem that rivals their offerings. I recommend these tools to most of my students (gamedev) because they’re already great, but if they wanna work in this area in industry they’re also forced to learn Adobe…

There is actually a wip project that aims to do just that, unite all these FOSS apps in one, interconnected ecosystem.

I don’t remember what it was called, I’ll get back to you once I find it again.

It’s OpenCreativity

There’s also GIMP as a Photoshop alternative

And Dark Table as a Lightroom alternative

Both are pretty great IMO

GIMP was painful to use. Has it gotten any better yet?

I’m not sure what you mean, I’ve found it quite easy to use though it does have a learning curve like most things

When was the last time you tried it?

No, use Krita instead. I gave up on Gimp ever getting better about 15 years ago

Krita is a lot better than Gimp if you need a PS alternative

Oh, I used to like Krita. That’s disappointing that they’re yet another on the AI train

Why though?

The image generation algorithm is open source and it runs locally. Artists can use it instead of giving up their art to some company to abuse. We’ve had tools like this for years, this is just better and easier to use

Artists are a bit tetchy about their stuff being used for the training data.
