This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Not equivalent, it's more for drawing than image editing.

Also, it doesn't even have the green pepper brush.

It works pretty well for image editing as well, at least the type I do. I’ve started using it mainly for that instead of GIMP (mainly because GIMP’s Mac version doesn’t work nearly as well as on Linux and I want to use both)

The lack of green pepper brush is a big downside though.

Yeah but krita has a circle tool

Who needs a circle tool when you can just google " circle no background transparent"

use gimp for over a decade to edit all manner of things, solve all manner of problems quickly and efficiently, but in public, at any given moment...

yeah, gimp sucks

It's simply that there are tools that work better, and it hasn't had an update in about 12 years.

It literally just had its biggest update ever last month.

Yeah but other than that

Apparently you can rice it to make it behave closer to Photoshop (shortcuts and whatnot).

it doesn’t: you just have skill issues
