    That’s funny, an entire article dedicated to the name of GIMP acting like it’s the only problem with that shitty software, still feels like 1995, still can’t do anything it should be able to do.

    30 years, and it still sucks.

    Glad the article really focused on the primary shortcomings of the software >_>
