This is Jehan Pages, the top developer behind GIMP, a free open source photo editor. Adobe executives hate Jehan. Because of his hard work, Adobe lost millions of dollars (infosec.pub)

I wish this were all true. I love having GIMP, and Sumatra for that matter, but let’s not pretend that Adobe product doesn’t have greater advantages.

Keep up the good work surrounding free and open source, but let’s remain real about it.

I'll be honest I've tried gimp and found that I'm terrible and not interested in making or editing any form of digital media. I've also tried Photoshop. Paint is more my speed fast and ugly.

Gimp, Paint.Net, VLC...

A little bit of hope for a future more like Star Trek and less like Wall-E.

Isn't this called, "competition"?
