In this video, I provide an overview of the 5 best or most exciting features coming to the highly-anticipated GIMP 3.0 release! These are my 5 favorite new features coming to GIMP 3.0, including non-destructive editing, smart guides, and CMYK support.
I’m super happy and excited for GIMP 3.0. I hate that this info was presented in a youtube video. I can gleam what I want to know from an article with bullet points (which I could find) but I’m sick of half the information I search for being returned in a video, with a fixed time commitment and imprecise “scrolling” to skip. I feel like in search and link aggregators, more and more content is video instead of text and I’m not here for it.
Depends on the context. We’re talking about an image editor, so showing a demo of the features in video form is helpful.
Insert vaguely relevant Xkcd:
To be honest, complaining that “half of the information” is in a video form is so stupid. Stick to the written sources and be happy that the other half of the information is supplied the way you want it.
Obviously there is a market for video content, and there is probably as many people liking it as disliking it. I am a dyslexictic person that can understand and remember way better when I am spoon fed the information instead of struggle through a long blog post or news site.
Please be open minded that we are different.
the gimp nightly builds seem to be pretty stable now. if you want to try out the latest and greatest features, you can easily install them with flatpak.
3.0 is gonna be so good 🦾
The Fx pipelines are fucking sick! Finally I can depricate my meme-text script!
Ah. So gimp is going to stop being 15 years out of date and instead going to be just 10 years out of date. Cool.
Send in a pull request.
this is a gnome project, that’s not how it tends to work
closed “Not A Bug” “WontFix”
“Please make Gimp relevant” would be a pretty interesting pull request.
