Yeah who needs the best software for hobbyist editing? $20/mo to Adobe forever until they jack it up even more, no thanks.
replyUpvoting you, because I actually use Gimp. While it has its headaches, for photo editing it's still the best after Photoshop.
reply(Yes, still better than Krita).
But this is all a digression, as Lightroom/Darktable are not Photoshop/Gimp replacements. Not even the same category.
Pretty sure they said "go gimp" ironically
reply> still better than Krita
reply??? Krita is painting/raster image creation software, why would you use it for photo editing?
You shouldn't. But I point it out because people keep posting "Ditch Gimp. Use Krita instead."
replyKrita's better for painting. Gimp's better for photo editing.
Darktable is top class.
