That’s not the issue though, Photoshop doesn’t have a native Linux version.

Using wine to run heavy productivity apps can be very troublesome and buggy

did they ban that stuff over in lemmy.world?

Yeah. Banned due to liability of the admins getting sued by big corp for hosting. It was really fun reading both sides. Some users pissed and threatening to leave the server. Others agreeing with the decision calling the opposing users whiny and asking why did you even join one of the biggest servers then? 10/10 recommend reading the threads.

Yeah because it’s evil and illegal and stuff, and everyone knows that a illegal stuff needs to be banned by unrelated admins what is an entirely different website.

there are quite a few people who don’t know you were being sarcastic. Either that or they agree with the admin’s decision.

Why BMP. GIMP can deal with SVGs, no?

It can open SVGs as raster images, but I never managed it to look great. It’s better to export to a BMP from an SVG editor.

Iirc the Education version of Photoshop is free. Schools don’t need to pay a penny for it.

you can’t draw a circle in gimp?

There’s no “Shape” tool. You could just select a circular area in an empty layer and fill it though.

No. The meme was because there was a bug that made drawing some circles go all wonky.

You can, it is very unintuitive though. You draw the shape using the eilpse tool and set a border for the selection.

It’s not hard, but there is really no way to figure this out without ever looking for a tutorial.

It’s absolutely stupid design and more difficult than it needs to be.

I’ll say it - Photoshop is infinitely more intuitive than gimp for the average person. Sure, if you are fucking determined, I’m sure you can figure it out eventually. You can even make it work. But if you say it is easier than Photoshop, you are wrong.

I love FOSS stuff but way too many people are delusional about the pros and cons of it. There are absolutely cons.

I stand with op.

I don’t believe that you can even figure out half of the things yourself if you are determined. There is no way you can use it without looking up tutorials for even basic things.

I fully agree in case my precious comment wasn’t clear. It is a mess!

All this time I was using the ellipse tool, filling it, then shrinking my selection and deleting.

Ah well, I learned Inkscape recently and it’s a better tool for stuff like that anyway.

GIMP 2 is utter dogshit in terms of user experience.

GIMP 3, the version that is supposed to make everything easier, hasn’t been released yet. ^(it’s been years and I have given up hoping)

The situation sucks, but there aren’t that many developers working on GIMP in the first place. Certainly not as many as Photoshop.

It’s genuinely not easy, but that’s because it’s a powerful tool that can change some aspects about drawing a circle.
