Krita: “what am I, chopped liver?”

[–] grue@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

No, you're a digital painting app rather than a photo retouching app.

Let's just keep hype in check. It's a more than welcome update, and indeed an improvement to this wonderful free software. Still, there are a couple things to fix. But i will indeed use it now more than before.

I know what you're saying but...

Are there any open source EASY basic photo shop type programs?

Same for basic video editing?

I use stuff like that once a year, and usually for basic tasks (like shortening a video) and I don't need a 12 hour tutorial every time :(

If you're on linux:

For video editing, one of the simpler but still feature-full ones is Openshot. If all you need is trimming, then Lossless Cut or the mpv plugin 'mpv-lossless-cut' is good.

edit: not sure if openshot is open source tbh

As for images, I don't have any experience so maybe just check the ones here in section 2.5: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_of_applications/Multimedia

Have they copied the UI of photoshop yet so it's usable?

[–] Eldritch@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

It's been the default UI for quite some time. And been available as an option for over a decade if I remember. This most recent update is dedicated to non-destructive editing and better color management more than anything if I'm not mistaken. Although it has been known to happen.

No, but Photopea does, and it's free.

AKA Have they copied the menu structure and tool names of photoshop yet so I don't have to learn anything new

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

I dunno man, the default GIMP configuration is very....unique.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I tried to learn it and couldn't because the UI is ass

Ended up pirating photoshop

Bad UI design is what prevented me from using an app that has hundreds of options that are better organized in Photoshop.

Sorry for asking a real question and not sucking the dick you wanted me to

[–] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee -4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I don't mean to be rude but I just couldn't resist the urge to spend a couple of minutes making this for you in GIMP 3.0

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hold on i have one for you too.

[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

This is a fanboy response. Gimp is KNOWN for it's unintuitive and hard to learn UI.

Unfortunately, this is a problem that plagues many FOSS applications.
