It's that phenomenon where people who endured trauma to attain something expect others to also endure the trauma.

I've tried learning GIMP, and it sucks. I'm not saying GIMP sucks, but you have to be crazy to not see that it's hard to learn.

Photoshop is also hard to learn. What's your point? Just because it's different to what you used to does not means it's more or less difficult to learn.

I'm not used to photoshop so I can't say anything about that.

I was a big fan of paint.NET but now that I stopped using Windows, it's the only software that I really miss.

It had fewer features than GIMP, but it was so intuitive yet surprisingly powerful.

Have not found a similarly amazing alrernative, I wish Wine could make it work...

Not having Paint.NET sucked when I switched to Linux. I got very used to it and that was the one I missed most... it took a few years bouncing between programs but I'm happy with Krita now. GIMP just never clicked for me unfortunately.

I sometimes think about making a Paint.NET clone for linux but i have too many other projects and hobbies i wanna do instead yk

You could contribute to Pinta, which I'm pretty sure has the same vision

Ooo cool, thanks for sharing!

Does it run with WINE? iirc it was used a lot as an example for wine on android because it supported windows-on-arm
