Look, I appreciate Gimp, but until its selection algorithm, which is straight up ass, gets fixed, Krita will be a better tool for artists.

I think there are new tools with Gimp 3

Also have you tried the magic select?

"better tool" I use GIMP, Inkscape, and Krita, etc. [each having strengths] why would an artist use just one tool?

I mean, I suppose I use Gimp as well, but it's never the first tool I reach for.

I read a comment somewhere that said Gimp is designed for programmers & Krita is designed for artists & I feel like that's pretty accurate.

best one I've read :-)

it's a tool made for developer with graphic knowledge not the other way around, there are more ways to shove in your own script than to find something that does what you want
