My comment wasn’t about specifically using gimp on Linux and dumping Mac and windows. But just about how to getting used to gimp in general.

Linux is still lacking many other professional grade software so even you find a PS replacement on linux. Other software problems might pop up.

Don’t try to do client work bound to a deadline on gimp. Because the stress will make you close gimp at the simplest inconvenience. That’s what happened to me. But trying to work with it on my free time. And installing the photogimp addon helped alot. Gimp still has a long way to go.

Subliminal messaging.

I don’t think it has that big of an impact. But most open source developers forget that it might end up being used by more people than just them .

Mastodon. Lemmy, do a web search especially for Lemmy on reddit and you are more likely than not to end up on threads about the singer . and don’t get me started on the many unpronounceable names of open source projects.

Wasting my time Yo.

it should be their parent’s paroblem ! give them the tools to do it properly without making other people’s lives hell. instead of govs trying to strip encryption and what not

I tried following lemmy communities using mastodon, but it wasn’t pretty. everytime someone posts a comment I receive a separate post on tusky, without context (both the original post, or parent comment are missing) and I would need to click each time on a post to go back up the tree, mastoton and its clients need to do some work to improve interoperability with other platforms,

but unfortunaly the only platform Mastodon recognises and is excited about joining is threads. I have never seen them address the existance of other fediverse projects.

I have a special hate for cloudflare in me I can’t describe
