>30 years of devs being smug and doing fuck all>SUDDENLY ACTIVITY OUT OF NOWHERE resulting in Gimp 3.0 making it finally acceptable, perfectly usable software>a year later it fucking gets completely left in the dust by a slew of vibecoded Photoslops generated in a couple daysThis is your reminder to never procrastinate.
>>110019818What happened recently with GIMP the software? You've given me hope but I expect disappointment
I'm not listening to you.
the reddit comments on this were hilarious, they hate AI so much they started to praise adobe and demand everyone pay them instead of using the evil ai
>>110019875no way
>>110019875Can you show me the download numbers for any of this vibecoded shit? I assume it's in the millions, with how you faggots keep hyping them up.
>>110019875>reddit allegedly hates ai so much that they'll worship the other evil thing.I hate reddit so much.
>>110019818gimp was never ever close to being a competitor lol
>>110019875the comments i saw were just like>it doesnt actually work>yes it does, have you used it?>no, have you?>no
>>110019848Gimp 3 is "good" which is kinda revolutionary considering its track record for decades.
>>110019818how do you act smug over some shit like gimp lmao
>>110019818>finally acceptable, perfectly usableoh nice, did they finally backpedal on their decision to turn every 0..255 slider into a 0..1 slider? that was retarded
>>110019818Pinta or Krita were the closest things to competitors for Photoshop on Linux.Gimp isn't even in the top 10 applications to be considered as competition. You're delusional if you think so.
>>110019818Can you select multiple layers now?
>>110019818>getting filtered by gimpsaar
>>110020175imagine being so brown you get filtered by gimp. why is this board flooded with jeets lately?>inb4 >lately
>more indians afraid of AIhilarious, in a panic no one needs their offshore code farms anymore
>>110020125kek sounds about right
>>110020457anon you might wanna check out what countries make the most use of ai services
>>110020392>What is reading comprehension
>>110020376actually yes>BUT is there a circle tool no-anon...
>>110020453buddy you misinterpreted, i appreciate open source efforts but what is there to be smug about? like adobe lives rent free in their minds or something?
>>110020485the US and china rajeesh, you can't afford it
>>110020493>da old version was too hard waah waahmy reading comorehension isn't the problem here, jeet
>>110020485Have you? There is no metric out there where Indians are at the top of any AI usage list, not even by absolute numbers (where they're usually 3rd or second last I checked but by per capita usage that's very low).
>>110019818Linux is controlled opposition.
>>110019818>Gimp 3.0 >acceptable, perfectly usable software>this is what free trannies actually believethank god for jeet vibecoders btfoing adobe
>>110020340programs*
>>110020340>try to use pinta>press photoshop keyboard shortcut>doesn't work or does something else>"whoooops soz we usin are own cuz wear speshul :-))">try to use kirita>furry degenerate mascot up and frontevery fucking time with this shitso yeah nah, I'll just wait for Adojeet Picturestore
>>110019952I tried the excel clone but it's nowhere close, its like 50% there like Calc
>>110019818For smol tasks FireAlpaca is comfy.Shit name tho
>>110019875adobe is an ai company
>>110019818>Gimp 3.0 making it finally acceptable, perfectly usable software>perfectly usable software
>>110021258>furry degenerate mascot up and frontThis lol, not hate against Qeqi but imagine working in a professional environment and you boot up your device and a furry degen pedo tranime avatar pops up kek
>>110020125nietzche talks about this
>>110019818>resulting in Gimp 3.0 making it finally acceptablelmao
>past years>use gimp to remove backgrounds sometimes >google for some kind of real time path editing feature. it would be really helpful>tons of results from people saying it just cant work bro, it just cant, its just impossible bro>current yearwhy is there a group of people that claim anything that doesnt currently exist is impossible?
>>110020613>comorehension
>>110021258Aside from shortcuts how's Pinta? What can it do over GIMP?
>>110019818the only use I've ever gotten out of this shit program is being able to convert images to webp. that's it. it is inferior in every other aspect
>>110024745Pinta is basically a cross-platform open-source alternative to paint.net except now its UI has undergone some pointless changes to make it look more sleek. It's not comparable in functionality to Photoshop (or Gimp, if the Gimp apologists are to be believed) but for the average person's meme-making needs it's more than sufficient.
>>110023649Until he went mad
>>110024000>you just made a typo>better luck next time kiddocringe
>>110023649the last men
>want a PS alternative >Option 1: a sort of ok program but with a furry tranny mascot>Option 2: a program called "gimp"The absolute state of foss
>>110019818i'm still deliberately using an old version because i don't trust anyone to make sensible updates anymore ( • ̀ω•́ )
>>110019818>>a year later it fucking gets completely left in the dust by a slew of vibecoded Photoslops generated in a couple daysthe ones where half the tools don't work at all and the other half don't do what you expect it to?
>>110019818Gimp was dogshit and the developers had a stick up their ass 24/7 when asked about UX issues. I'm glad AI is finally giving linux an alternative
>>110027166I'm also using a 2.10 appimage.The rectangle selection tool can move pasted layers or you can do so using the arrow keys. Gimp 3 changed a lot of small things.
>>110021258>Niggas irrational autistic feewees got hurt by a furry picture BAHAHAHAHA
use case for image editors in the age of Gen AI?
>>110027935standard gen AI shits the bed trying to match or follow UV maps for modeling unless it's been explicitly designed for it, and even then it's prone to a lot of error
>>110027571t. furrynigger
>photocraft-0.5.0-linux-x86_64.appimagehope they improve it more. i found some issues but it's still better than gimp.
>>110027935Fixing up defects in AI gens
>>110023649no he didn't
>>110024782it can do way more than that but, shouldn't you use imagemagick or ffmpeg to convett gifs and videos to webp?I just do ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -an -loop 0 out.webp
ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -an -loop 0 out.webp
Lmao who the fuck even uses these programs? Nano Banana is also completely free and can do all the same things, plus a lot more, at 1000x the speed.
>>110019818If you believe in hype that's true, if you're an actual artists it's pure BS
>>110028061They're going to get sued. It's inevitable. It doesn't even matter if they win or not, it's that the code is tainted with AI and that's easy ammo for Adobe.
>>110019818GIMP has 50 million users. Nobody gives a shit about some photoshop decompile zoomer shit.
>>110019818>open gimp>circle tool>requires 5 clicks to make circleLinux devs are on purpose making software unusable and user friendly because "dev wanted to be special" like why ?
>>110020642>Israel: most usage in the worldWell well well
>>110019952Its around 2 million downloads, if yout filter india thou its... 5
>>110028908I think it's more likely they just don't want copyright and patent abuse cases and do in a special way to avoid them.
>>110029229can you patent clicking on button and dragging mouse to have your circle ? Because this is as old as DOS then even some early dos paint programs had this mechanic i don't think this should be a problem...
>>110024745For simple stuff I just works, but do not expect miracles nor attempt anything complex
>>110023949>why is there a group of people that claim anything that doesnt currently exist is impossible?Every non-FAGMAN staff developer is like this for some reason. They don't want to think hard or do anything cool. If you want back to 1992, 90% of developers then would have told you something like DOOM is impossible on their hardware.
Everybody move out to Photopea/PhotoCraft already.
>>110029949is that a threat
I think it's hilarious that someone is expecting artists to use vibe slopped software.
>>110019818Okay lads. What is the "reality" of GIMP right now? I know it doesn't hold a candle to the professional stuff like how Blender does the to paid for stuff.>butAre we in a wild west of AI vibe coded Photoshop alternatives? How long until things settle down and a "winner" comes out? I'm not sure if vibecoding can save GIMP either. I want to like GIMP. I used it to make funny images. But when it comes to something with more "meaning" beyond silly meme edits that was when I found that GIMP kind of fell flat on me.
>>110030235>What is the "reality" of GIMP right now?it's pretty much all you need, stick to older versions if 3.0 feels awkward~2.1 feels perfect so it's where i keep it. easily the most convenient gradient/layering of anything else on the market which is really all that matters these days. it's got extensions if you need things like norm maps or material conversionsuse substance painter for anything 3d/mesh related tho>But when it comes to something with more "meaning" beyond silly meme edits that was when I found that GIMP kind of fell flat on me.what does this even mean? like AI inpainting or whatever?
I just prefer my software coded by4 human hands. Vibecoded slop just feels... soulless. Yes, I know it's "good" on a technical level but it's just not the same.
>>110029949>minor speeling mistakae on 20 year old website, you can't edit it, goy.hiromoot and rapeape are the kings of all cucks.
>>110030494again, why the fuck do you still use it?
I frequently edit nude pictures of friends I generate to make them more arousing and this is what Photoshop has and Gimp not that I use:- patch tool (both standard and content aware)- selection brush- remove tool- properties window with layer location- comfy layer moving
>>110030557>I frequently edit nude pictures of friends I generate least indian post award
>>110019818>Gimp>usableOnly with this mod that gives it a somewhat sane layout.https://github.com/Diolinux/Photogimp
>>110030606layout was never the issue of gimp. i never edited images. didn't really understand what i needed layers for. i used gimp and photopea for the first time and gimp was pure frustration while photopea was just heaven by comparison.
>>110019818>>110019848>>a year later it fucking gets completely left in the dust by a slew of vibecoded Photoslopsdid it though? I haven't tested photoslop yet
>>110019818beaver. its all beaver's fault. he sabotaged gimp. hes an adobe mole.
>>110032319lol
>>110032319Beaver is the reason Gimp has actual layer effects. Without him they'd still have none.
>>110030125they hated him because he told the truth
>>110026982They don't think it be like it is but it do
>>110032366all beaver did was shitty text plugins. He forced GIMP devs to work on gegl instead of improving the gimp ux and ui. It's all beavers fault.
>>110022694It'd be funny if someone succeeds with an actually competitive Excel clone. Libreoffice couldn't do it after how many decades...
Gimp has always been good enough to do anything I want. I don't see what all the fuss is about.
>>110019952>>110022694>>110032508Why does everyone want to clone Excel instead of moving to something sane like Jupyter?
>>110032555They don't see what all the FOSS is about
>>110032508>Libreofficesuffering from standardsthey never wanted clones, they wanted corps to move to open standards and they never did so the whole thing has failed
>>110032508they will. because linuxfags can't realise that pleb filtering through UX isn't good for growth
>>110023649keknormgroids didn't even get it
>>110028252did you read nietzche?
>>110032716no, did you?
