"Let's not detract from the technical achievements of GIMP 3.0".
I agree. The suppleness of the lined leather is an improvement against my face compared the the unlined PVC of 2.0 and the baffles on the zip stop my lips chafing from repeated use.
And that is why I can't use it in an educational setting, or a lot of professional settings.
The project needs a name change. It has done for a long time. There's a lot of bad faith arguments about why it shouldn't be changed. Keeping the existing name is doing the project more harm than good, where it could be seeing strong adoption in places that matter.
I look forward to the point I can add it to the stable of open daily drivers that I use to produce and teach with (FreeCAD, KiCad, Inkscape, etc).
