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.

Windows installer:

Linux Snap:

macOS:

Windows MSIX:

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

If you spot any bug, please report it here:

Stop funding the corporate machine. Take back your software, test the build, and help launch the new era of open-source creation

Maybe it shouldn't matter, but it absolutely does. People are always looking for signals of class and status.

I just learned a new name for it, and it's origins:
