I've tried using GIMP and it absolutely sucks and I wish there was a good paint.net replacement.

Something I found about a lot of open source projects is that the UI is always terrible

Krita is pretty good.

https://www.pinta-project.com/ based on older version of paint.net source code.

I do get, why people dislike GIMP. It has a bit of a steep learning curve. And approaches things uniquely.

But for a FOSS paint equivalent: have you tried Pinta? It's much less complicated, and the UI isn't too bad.

Based on the screenshots I see, it looks a lot better. I'll give it a try, thanks!

I use https://www.photopea.com/. It is an online editor and never disappointed me.
