If literally any Adobe competitor released a product for Linux they'd dominate that niche.

    It really depends, but some tools would really do that. DaVinci Resolve, for example, has a pretty bad Linux distribution support and format, all things considered, and it's still the go-to video editor for Linux users, despite all of the issues.

    They really are, but still leagues behind the features (and online learning material) compared to Resolve. I love both of them, but still, when I need to get to work with video, I still prefer to deal with Resolve's limitations than to deal with Kdenlive or Shotcut.

    I say this as a foss proponent... gimp sucks ass.

    Now, Inkscape is Goat, but Gimp is nigh unusable.

    When was the last time you used it? The newer versions are better and with Gimp 3 there will be many improvements.

    I appreciate GIMP but nah, it's objectively inferior to Photoshop by a long shot and development is really slow. I mean they've only just got to GTK 3.

    It's comparatively difficult to use.

    Plus they insist on sticking to that infantile name. I don't know how they're expecting to get industry support with a name like that.

    Don't get me wrong I use it every once in a while but damn they're so far behind it's a joke. And the worst part is they seemingly don't want the project to advance.
