@[email protected] @[email protected] Bro, even YOU guys are suggesting GIMP, meanwhile most people try to use Krita as an image editor cuz of the UI and other issues i can't fully understand.

Is like using a Lawnmower to cut wood.

Edit: I need to clarify that i'm saying that people are using the WRONG TOOL for the job, i'm not saying either of these programs suck.

Are you saying gimp sucks or krita sucks?

@TrickDacy I'm saying that people are using the WRONG TOOL for the job, none of those program suck.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Fair enough. I have never used krita. What are these tools right for? My understanding is they are both image editors so I would've assumed them pretty similar outside of UI differences

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

@TrickDacy Krita is for Digiral Painting, GIMP stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program, Krita is intended for Digital Painting, GIMP is intended for Photo editing.

GIMP is lighter than Krita in terms of resource usage, Krita requires at least 4GB of RAM to work, although i tested it with 2GB VM, which made it a little sluggish.

For more concrete comparision here's a Youtube video on Invidious (The video is 3 years old but it can help)

Krita is great for drawing. It is made for it.

People really try to use Krita for photo editing?
