GIMP 3.0 has been more than one decade in the making as the port from GTK2 to GTK3, also transitioning away from Python 2 to Python 3 support, and a wealth of other improvements from the UI to lower down into enhancing this open-source Photoshop alternative.
The GIMP project announced on X/Twitter today that they have entered the string freeze for this much anticipated release.
It’s almost like the whole customized apps to fit into the GTK framework concept creates too much added work and needs to be rethought.
I don’t understand why someone should choose any GTK variant when they’ll have to refactor and rewrite their application every few years.
