    I remember someone pointed out that GIMP probably would never get adopted in a company or professional environment just because of the name. Imagine suggesting that someone should use “GIMP” in a work meeting, lol. It’s not necessarily a problem, but it’s a funny limitation that they put on the software.

      Aint good at graphic design but Krita’s better anyways, we used it in school, along with PS, didn’t really see a difference in either program, tho I was equally shit at using both.

      I use GIMP at work. It’s officially approved in a very tightly restrained environment, literally in a repository of software people can install from. At an enterprise with thousands of employees.

      I’m pretty sure only people who know what it is install it, never heard anyone so much as mention it.

      See, most people have no clue that “gimp” is a sex thing. They just see it as a funny-sounding acronym. In an actual work meeting, the people who do know wouldn’t say anything about it to avoid being seen as the weird ones.
