  Less hate and more super awkward. I learned Photoshop and can do a lot of its functions in my sleep. Many of them are just wildly different in gimp 2 in ways I find very counterintuitive. Shortcut keys are different even in cases I cannot explain the reasoning, etc. In gimp 3, I get a lot less of that. Rather than hitting constant roadblocks where I’m stuck, I just feel slower than when using Photoshop, and that’s a great step forward for me. The UI feels a lot more modern for me in general.

    I find this funny, since I did a Gimp tutorial back in 2000 (early Gimp 2.x maybe, but maybe still 1.x – I don’t remember that part). I got okay with it.

    A friend asked me to do some early photo editing a couple of years later since they’d heard that I was “good at Photoshop”. I pointed out that I was actually “mediocre at Gimp”. I was plunked down at a computer with a (probably pirated) install of Photoshop and asked to touch up some photos.

    I hated it. Nothing was where I expected it to be coming from Gimp.

    It sounds like I might hate Gimp 3.

      I wouldn’t assume you’ll hate it. It’s still very gimpy
