Literally every meme I've ever made was done in GIMP. I can say that the software needs non-destructive editing that applies to transforming layers. So far there's only non-destructive effects on the layers, but discarding 20 years of work because the software is not a 1:1 copy of Photoshop seems silly.

It's worth mentioning that GIMP is mainly developed by two developers. If you wish for the development to be faster, you should consider donating.

That's what I used to think as well actually. I opened it, saw the airplane control center, and closed it. But then I volunteered for editing a photo for my school, and I had to learn how to effectively create borders around the text, as I would have to makes a lot of changes to them. So I searched and came across this video. And then I understood that GIMP is actually a really powerful tool, you just have to learn how the developers intended you to work with it. Admittedly, having to use the drop shadow feature for text borders is pretty retarded, but it lets you fine tune the how the end result will look.

GIMP or Krita might not be up to the standard as Affinity and Photoshop are, but at least while perfecting my skills in GIMP, I don't have to worry about having to find a different software because a random company purchases it.

Not to worry, I have inside info from PornHub, and they assured me no people living in Texas were harmed during the ban.

It's an attempt to parody the meme format where people take two similarly looking characters and put Science Blaster (Game Theory's theme song) in the background, implying that the two characters are the same. Such as this one.

Near miss. GIMP on Ubuntu, and the emojis originate from here. Just for fun I tried to match the gradient of the image featured in the article, instead of pasting the emojis one by one.

I guess he doesn't know about Lemmy's image compression. Oh well, In case someone truly wants a high res version of this masterpiece, here it is.

Nintendo refuses to fix the joycon drift issue and still charges full price for a 7 years old device. We will call it a moral draw.

A lot of people around me are genuinely confused when your email is not [email protected], as they mostly just use it for confirming logins. That's how bad the situation is.

I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

Lemmy failed to attach the image so I deleted the post

Apple (slrpnk.net)
 

I don't care if anyone has a Xiaomi, Oneplus, Samsung, etc. Each brand is using a modified version of Android, and they chose to be compatible with each other. But for example the "blue vs green bubble" drama is a thing specifically because of Apple locking their unsuspecting users into a closed ecosystem. And it sure isn't Android's fault for not being compatible with it.

The more power a company like this gains, the worse will it be for the whole industry.
