gimp is kinda jank yeah but when people have Serious Takes about how it needs to improve all i can read is "here is how these four guys working intermittently for free have FAILED to live up to the international company making twenty billion dollars a year"

GIMP is objectively unintuitive and also can’t parse text layers of PSDs properly, it’s designed by FOSS people that have never created tools for professionals. Telling someone to use it for their job is like saying you can make a feature on iMovie. Technically true but not serious.

It’s the air of defensiveness being called out. It’d be one thing if Isobel responded “Ok fair but I’m doing this for free cut me some slack” but when they chose to insult their critics’ intelligence instead it makes me think it’s more than a lack of resources making the UI suck.

they are doing internet jokes and did not actually create gimp
