Love that they leave out Blender and Godot from the thumbnail lol

Also, Inkscape is great. Dunno why they're complaining about it.

Clearly ragebait thumbnail, gimp is the only one that actually has an argument for being “bad”

Was this headline written by capitalism?

Because they just want clicks and ad revenue... So capitalism. Check out today's sponsor, NordVPN.

Without having watched the video:

For me personally I think a big chunk of why FOSS alternatives seem "bad" is because you don't know how to use them (yet). I spend decades of familiarising myself with all the horrendous fucking "quirks" and bad UX and other stuff of Adobe software and internalsing all that bullshit. When Inkscape had different "quirks" (= ways of doing things) of course it's easy to dismiss it as "bad".

And yes, some software that is mostly made by a bunch of volunteers for free can't feature-compete with a multi-million company, surprise.

I think it would be more interesting to find out why Adobe software is still so abysmal after they've probably thrown hundreds of millions of dollars on it. I recently watched my brother work on a complex project with Premiere and it was almost non-functional, quite fascinating, actually.
