@dosnostalgic What is with this bizarre rush to comply in advance with the worst people on the planet...

Hot take of the day: we could have stopped Adobe ages ago if GIMP had any other name.GIMP is nominative determinism applied to open source. If Fedora was named FUCKBOI, it would have failed too.

GIMP spent a decade sucking the oxygen out of open source image editing because open source advocates would say "just contribute to the porn sextime fetish sadomaso image editor" and people would say "uhhhh. I'll just keep using Photoshop, or maybe donate my coding to, uh... a mouse driver or something..."

It appears this really was the hot take of the day. Stick around for long threads on boring shit.

The number of folks saying there's no way the name 'GIMP' ever stopped anyone from using or contributing to it is extraordinary.I have *never* been in an office that has allowed me to install GIMP. Never. I have never even been able to get past the sniff of a pitch about GIMP.Because of the name.The level of disconnect people have with basic reality is refreshing. What is their world like?

And what do you put on your resume. "Put in 5000 hours developing GIMP!" "Proficient in GIMP!"And the companies - donate to RedHat? Sure. Donate to Fedora? Sure. Donate to GIMP?Why do so many people refuse to see this obvious, obvious issue. It's not theoretical, it's why GIMP died.Rant grumble rant grumble.
