"Yes, do as I say!"

I miss the days when their slogan was "Don't be evil"

Nah, every conservative I know hates toll roads with a passion. They want the roads to be taxpayer-funded because that's what they use as an upstanding member of society, while social programs and public transit should be profitable or shut down because those are for the poors who need to get their act together.

Basically, they think everything conservatives and billionaires rely on should be taxpayer-funded, while everything they don't need is "for the poors" and needs to either turn a profit or be cut.

Seriously. I hear a lot from the right that public transit, bike routes, and social programs need to be profitable or they shouldn't exist. With no mention of the roads they drive on every day.

"We're not anti-union. We're pro-employee!"

Honestly, this. This is exactly why people don't trust Canva not to enshittify it. OnlyOffice is also owned by a company, but since it's free as in freedom, people know they can trust it.

No, the ones who are paying for the energy are the people who live near whatever data centers received the slop requests.

Are the Krita developers paying you to go off the rails like this?

I think you've got that backwards.

Not liking the name of the software I use and saying your preferred application is superior is better because it's prettier are emotional arguments.

I stated that Krita doesn't do what I need it to do at the moment but would consider switching to it if it did.

I didn't say the GIMP is better for all use cases. I said it's better for my use case. And it's really weird for you to get this defensive when both applications are FOSS.

Some photo editing features were either never added, or they feel clunky to use. Either way, the GIMP is better suited even if it's uglier.

Krita is a great tool for artists, but I'm not going to force myself to use it instead of the GIMP, and I'm not going to tell others it's designed for something it's not. I'll keep checking in on it, but until it does what I need it to, it's not going to become my main tool for photo editing.
