important here to remember that Blender was created within the industry as a commercial tool. When open sourced the leader of the project remained and knew quite well what separated a good creative tool from a bad one. It was always situated in a position where the core users were either hobbyists or professionals.
Gimp was never in such a situation.
Culture is important.
- berkes 1mo ago> Culture is important Which brings us back to why so many people dislike Gimp, and/or see it as a posterchild example of bad FOSS alternatives. I agree, and Culture IS important. And I think the culture around many Open Source "Alternatives" is harming themselves and the overall FOSS community. From Mastodon via Gimp to Nextcloud.
