GIMP is preparing to unleash a revolutionary new update—a high-performance, modern UI powerhouse designed to dismantle Adobe’s stranglehold on the industry.

To deliver the final blow to subscription-based creative tools, GIMP desperately needs testers right now.

Just open the software and do random stuff.

  • Open different files

  • Use the text tool

  • Put an image in black and white

  • Convert files from one format to the other

Please do not change the name.

There's nothing wrong with it whatsoever. ~ I feel seen (with my gimpy walk), with that homonym out there. It's a strong positive.

Also, what an ugly book-burning history-rewriting miscrediting to try hush an advocacy of freedom, when [ironically] that freedom's right there, availing you the solution (that does not seek to impose any doubleplus goodspeak), in that you can just fork it, and rename it, yourself, if that's the issue you have with it.

.... Also... I've never heard it called GNU Imp. Gimp, or GNU Image Manipulation Program, or the gimp. That's just silly. ... And why's Imp considered an improvement? What's the benefit? What itch would it scratch?
