Related to that, Jacob Boerema has implemented PSD Descriptor import support. Most of our current PSD support has been based on the the public Adobe specification. This document was last updated in 2019 however, and modern PSDs use a relatively undocumented text format called Descriptors to store many features.

The battle tested strategy of only providing old standards to others, like MS does.

Don't use PSDs? I know people will say, "it's not as simple as that, they're industry standard", but if you say you'll only accept professional work in an open format, and you're the client, you have the control to change things.

It's not about not using PSD.

GIMP is all about letting people to open and edit any image files. Whether it is a medical images format (DICOM), bitmap image only used on smart message, (Nokia's Over The Air Bitmap), to open experimental niche format (Jeff's Image Format).
