    I don’t know. With the exception of a single feature, I’ve found photoshop better to use than GIMP. The one feature exception is GIMP’s wonderful “color to alpha” feature, and I always keep a gimp install around just for it.

    Photoshop just seems easier to use, and more robust? With nicer effects, better filters, etc etc? At least for the features I tend to use. I’m not a professional by any means, but I tweak and composite and blend images a fair bit for my various hobbies (mostly ttrpgs).

        GIMP is honestly a lot better than it used to be, especially with the g’mic plugin, which is insanely powerful.

        For Photoshop users, there’s also photogimp, which makes gimp have a Photoshop layout and keyboard shortcuts.

        Though personally I use krita most of the time, which has g’mic built in nowadays.

        I’ve used all three products and I prefer Gimp. My wife prefers Krita. It’s great to have choices.
