GIMP is better

Furries

That's like saying a hammer's better than a screwdriver

gimp's ui is fucking retarded and lacks basic features, krita at least looks and feels similar to ps

>flip pen upside down
>switches to eraser
>flip pen right side up
>stays on eraser

*crashes*

>Anything I'm not used to is bad

I started with GIMP and had zero problems. When I tried the adobe suite it was an intuitive mess

i started with ps so i can't tell you for myself but i had a friend that used gimp for 3 years when i met him, after watching me work in ps for ~5 hours he switched, with my help, and never looked back

This.

Not a based anti-SJW editor.

bug report?

Krita is pro-SJW? What?

Is Krita really good?

Adobe subscription is expensive

i think he ment the gimp name controversy and them telling sjws to fuck off, which was pretty based

well guess what I had a friend that used ps for 3 years when i met him, after watching me work in gimp for ~5 hours he switched, with my help, and never looked back

I use gimp instead of photoshop

I started using krita just to see what it's like and after 5 minutes I uninstalled gimp and switched over

It's no contest. I can use krita despite knowing fuckall about it. Haven't had to google 'how to x' since I installed it, whereas that's basically a daily experience with gimp.

Maybe krita will get a shittier UI as the features expand, but for right now it's miles ahead of gimp in usability.

Aren't there things Krita can't do? Also do you use text tool in krita?

Literal fursoft.

It can be somewhat slow.

>people flipping their pen to erase

really?

this desu, i tried using it for some time but it just lagged when i stacked a few layers with effects, it seemed like it didn't render placeholders and re-rendered every frame from scratch

I wish my pen worked like that

>he doesn't know

It's way faster to just use a hotkey though.

so you want to decrease your productivity?

Know what?

>so you want to decrease your productivity?
If I wanted to be productive I wouldn't be drawing.

Well that makes no sense but godspeed

How doesn't it? Drawing's something I do in my free time for fun, productivity is when I'm getting shit done.

the airbrush mode is so bad it's embarrassing. directly related, there is no accumulate mode. deal breaker for me.

qt

this was only 1 version bug. and it already fixed.

3.1.12

I want to use it, so bad
but it seem to be pretty slow or laggy at times

instant preview on brushes does help but it's not a definitive solution.

Sai and medibang are fast as hell.

>t. gtkuck dev

>but it seem to be pretty slow or laggy at times
What are your specs? That is not normal.

Nothing, Krita is very neat.

Krita is the only drawing software that gives me lag on my PC
at 5000x5000 or more depending on the brush

It's not photoshop.

fake and gay

samefag

electron actually :^)

I haven't tried Krita out yet. Are the pen settings as easily editable as the ones in SAI?

I use krita for really basic stuff, like cropping around an image to add a transparency layer, or scribbling shit.

I don't use it for text or really basic editing, that's mspaint's job.

There's tons of shit krita probably can't do that gimp can, but in all honesty it's shit I never use anyways. For example, I wanted to convert a few logos to a vector format and gimp did this with some add-on thing. I doubt krita can (I never tried though, I did this before I even heard of krita).

I wouldn't say it's as simple but holy shit are there a lot of options. Typical KDE software I guess.

That's worse honestly.

KDE dependency

Requires half a terabyte of kgarbage to install.

Is Krita good? I thought it was just for drawing unlike Photoshop. If it's good for editing images as well then that's great.

Pretty sure Krita's just for digital painting

Faster and more efficient also, because you A: do not put unneeded stress on your hand by turning it all the time and B: you don't have to aim for the same spot again to continue drawing.

GIMP user for 6 years and counting. PS id actually nice and I'm learning it slowly to take advantage of my hardware acceleration.

Might give Krita a try some point in the future.

krita is painting, gimp and photoshop are photomanipulation.
Its not manga/clip studio.

If you need photomanipulation, photoshop is king.

if you just paint, use kirta till manga studio or clip studio go on their usual 15$ sales and pick that up. cringy name I know but it's hands down the best drawing/painting program currently, followed by coral if you want to emulate real world materials.

kitra sucks dick on windows, its near flawless on linux.

Its text tool is fucking awful.
10/10 software otherwise, also Inkscape has great text tools so it doesn't matter much.

its good for what it does but it likes to use a lot of cpu power randomly and made 20 icons for itself in the "open this file with..." menu

You can paint in Photoshop too. And technically Gimp, but why would you.

>open text tool
>change fonts
>CPU spikes up to 100%
*crashes*

Linux will never EVER get a proper photoshop alternative.

Its not photoshop.
Just get a cracked photoshop.

It requires 400mb of KDE/Qt libraries to run
not including all its other dependencies.

I was going to play with it, but then it wanted to pull in every fucking
k* library under the fucking sun.

on a unrelated note I've been getting "select all the bridges" on the
google captcha all day...fucking creepy google.

me too. yesterday was about cars

>It requires 400mb of KDE/Qt libraries to run
Seriously
That shit is unacceptable.
The idea for dynamic linking was that we would need less hard drive space.
Instead now we need more because every programm needs the whole bloated fucking framework installed on the computer.
Statically linking only the parts you need was the right aproach afterall.

>not using legacy captcha

im comfy in my bed only with 1 hand free. blame me

The latest appimage is less than 80Mo though.
So that complaint is outdated.

it's still bad software design

They fixed that with Qt5 so no it's not still bad software design. What exactly are you comparing it with?

whats the context to this?

PDF import is still broken on linux.

Of if you're serious painter is cheap enough or cracked

Not fucking OK

Just go on the official website and download the appimage you retard.

The goddamn eraser doesn't work like a regular fucking eraser fucking god fucking damn it.

Completely ruins my workflow because every other program has always had a separate tool entirely to remove pigment but they want to be more... I don't know what they want.

In theory being able to make any brush an eraser would be nice but you can only switch between two brushes with a keyboard shortcut. Also it's your last two picked brushes so it can change and you'll forget and then draw ontop with a brush that might not even be a fucking eraser.

God damnit. And drawpile has decided to do the same goddamn useless thing.

Also it's UI is a cluttered mess and half the options make no sense without some tutorial or manual.

Also the UI is tiny on high-dpi displays. You can make certain buttons larger but the text and menu items and windows are all tiny still making it hard of use.

>dependencies
at least we have appimages, but still.
Also pen smoothing is lagging on windows. Not sure whose fault is it since it works fine on linux

I can name a few, but
>default hotkey configuration
But this seems to be a problem with most OSS alternatives... at least I can take the hour and a half to locate and change them.
Took me a while to figure out remapping ctrl. Sort of.
As well, there's a ton of 'uncomfortabilities' within the software - small quirks that were probably included by developers who don't really use drawing software. But I still use it, as it's the best I can get for Memenix

Bug reports in the KDE world is useless at best and normally just an exercise in convoluted frustration.

>Name one thing wrong with Krita

Furfag mascot.

He means the Mascot. But Kiki really isn't furfag material (too robotic), which is why there's so little porn of her.

As far as I know, Krita does not have a good way to warp the canvas to aid with creating depth.
Take a look at how it impacts the work of one of my favorite modern artists.

Windows is your problem nigger

these

>Crack Photoshop
>Never have to worry about anything ever again
Boy am I sure I went this route.

Until the binary breaks on modern systems, you mean.

I'd dick it

The problem with gimp is that it's the programmer's solution to an artist's problem. And even then, it's no Emacs. Although, does it still support guile?

Krita is great but:
>lags on windows
>dependency hell on linux
Appimages kind of deal with the #2 problem but i really think that they could reduce the dependencies, so that people can compile newer versions of it easily on older or more stable systems.
I think inkscape is also going in the right direction, but they need to release stable builds more frequently. Its great for making simple illustrations for LO/word.

>Also the UI is tiny on high-dpi displays. You can make certain buttons larger but the text and menu items and windows are all tiny still making it hard of use.
What's the point of HiDPI displays? Instead of having your regular GUI, everything is scaled up so it ends up looking exactly the same.

It's a waste of money and energy, if you ask me.

>GIMP lacks basic features

No it doesn't. It's just different. Just because you don't know how to do something doesn't mean it can't be done, user.

>Although, does it still support guile?
It never did.

that literally doesn't happen

It's about not seeing the pixels from a sane distance in fonts anymore.
If you can't see the font pixels from half a meter away, you're an eye cripple, btw.

>no filter layers

Fuck, you're right.
I guess I just remembered that guile-gnome project.

GIMP is absolute garbage, how can anyone defend it? Its coming from someone who used it for most of his life. I transitioned to Photoshop not long ago.
GIMP is not only lacking in features but interface is buggy as fuck and since developers are typical freetards with heads in their asses nothings ever gonna change. When you point out bugs you get typical
>WUUUH ITS FREE SO ITS AS IS
>WOW WE ARE DOING THIS FOR FREE YOU UNGRATEFUL SWINE

Like I said, I think the problem is that it's made by programmers, for [???]. There are as of now too few proper designers in that community. and GIMP will not be the one to change that. I have never tried any hackery with it, though. I could imagine that's where it may blossom.

No his problem is the Phenom II has a 62C thermal limit

I'm not. My eyesight is perfectly fine at short distance. It's just that I like the shit I own and feel comfortable with it as long as it works, instead of buying new, shiny shit every year.

Funny how everyone who wastes money on products like that always come up with bullshit excuses like these:
>I need this useless HiDPI monitor because I have 9001/9001 vision!
>I need this two 600 $ GPUs in SLI because I have the eyesight of a trained jet pilot and can totally see the difference between 120 and 118 FPS!
>I need this 6"+ pone because my hands are totally 8" or more in length!
>I need this new 10000 $ sound equipment because my ears are magical and can hear frequencies that don't even exist!

You're not fooling anyone. Just accept it's consumerism.

>62C thermal limit

nope. everything runs else fine. and it can reach 75C

no support for animation

It has though.

I'm an artist and I'm an artist.
