GIMP is objectively unintuitive and also can’t parse text layers of PSDs properly, it’s designed by FOSS people that have never created tools for professionals. Telling someone to use it for their job is like saying you can make a feature on iMovie. Technically true but not serious.
A reminder that the programmers that start (F)OSS are rarely good at UI/UX, and that UI/UX designers can rarely start creating software without programmers. I think great (F)OSS tends to be opinionated, mature, and has gone through that rude awakening of "wait, do/I we suck at UI/UX?"
The subscriptionification of every single piece of software that every business must have makes me madder than any other work-related thing these days. And every time I complain about it and say that we're a small arts nonprofit, we don't have the budget for this, someone pops up to say...

“I think actually things will move maybe even by the end of this year to where you don't even bother doing coding. The AI just creates the binary directly.”
“Doing coding.” The AI just creates “the binary” directly. Ok.

I hate this future. I'm so fucking pissed off. I just opened MS Word to look at a manuscript and suddenly I can't create or edit any documents because I don't have Microsoft 365. I'm not fucking buying MS 365, I bought THIS single license version of Word in 2024.
