    I use GIMP since 2.8 version, which is ages ago. Used it to edit my photography, to create price tags for my local shop, create web banners, memes… lot of memes, editing pixel graphics, and more.

    To be honest it was not a good experience editing photography, especially as it didn’t have some standard features like layer effects. And the missing standard features like shape tools and such is also a big deal for me. Also for printing the price tags the color space was a problem too, as it didn’t support CMYK. I also wish there was a simple “record and playback macros” functionality, which I saw in Photoshop years ago.

    All in all these points and many other are addressed or are being addressed right now. GIMP is still not as good as Photoshop and there are pain points. But it is improving and already has improved ton of a lot.
