They’ve been completely dropping the ball for years. I used to donate regularly but have completely given up on this project. It’s a farce at this point.

Liberapay shows the number of donors has almost doubled in the last few months (look at "view income history"), so i hope it is an indication that they made good changes to the project management and the future will be better.

Is it because they're improving, or is it because Adobe keeps pissing people off and donating to GIMP is cheaper than a Photoshop sub?

I don't actually have any opinion on gimp one way or another, it does what I need it to do.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

That's good to hear, and I really would love for things to get sorted out. Gimp 3.x has many improvements for sure but there's a long way to go and actually releasing these improvements is necessary...

If gimp can become another blender that would be incredible.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
