This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Quality features often confuse people.
Nah, pretty sure it was the ai jammed in everything.
So then you admit that pre-AI Photoshop was significantly better than gimp. Thanks
Oh. Hands down. I miss the old creative suites. But the current product? Glitchy pos. Fuck em. Once you use gimp for a few years the pain dulls. Now how you think inkscape is comparable to illustrator is baffling. Is illustrator also a shitshow now?
I wouldn’t actually know. I don’t use Adobe Products.
But if you exclude the AI features, and don’t make “anti-ai” your entire personality, gimp is pretty shit
...?? Gimp is what it is. It doesn't hold your hand-and there is admittedly an element of bootstraps. But once you are used to it, it will do what most people need it for.
Why have such aggressive opinions on software you apparently don't even use?
Why do you have such aggressive opinions on Photoshop if you don’t use it?
I think our conversation is over, don’t you think?
I'm not sure it could be defined as a conversation.
I wish you the best of luck working out whatever it is you are going through. Hang in there buddy 💪.
