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.

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.
Krita may have started out as a photo editor, but that’s clearly not its focus today. If I need to edit a photo, I will use a tool better suited for that task, even if that tool isn’t as pretty as Krita.
That’s what I thought. People keep saying Krita is a great alternative to GIMP, Photoshop, and Affinity Photo, but photo editing is not its focus at all.
Isn’t Krita more focused on digital painting than photo editing? I always end up going back to the GIMP because of that even though I use KDE.

3·1 month agoTrue, but my point was that the reason Hillary Clinton lost wasn’t sexism, it was the electoral college.
I will add that broken systems need to be acknowledged or we will definitely be stuck with them forever.

politics @lemmy.world•Bernie Sanders floats AOC as potential 2028 presidential contender: ‘Very good politician’
93·1 month agoHillary Clinton won the popular vote. She only lost because of the electoral college, which is an antiquated concept that needs to go away.
Kamala Harris lost because she was a terrible candidate who was shoehorned in at the last second after it became apparent that Joe Biden was unfit to run for a second term. The Democrats and media lied about Biden for so long that it was too late to hold a proper primary. And by then, enough people were so upset that they just didn’t show up to vote, especially since the media kept telling everybody she was going to win for sure.
