Good video, very much worth watching despite the length. New UI will look something like this:
with an option for a more classic look.
Looks like an enourmous UX improvement too, and a rewrite to QT and eliminating a lot of technical debt will make development faster.
I usually go with Krita. Not because of the UI, i just learnt to use it first and like it. Or Inkscape for vector graphics.
Agreed. Krita is a better program for print design. The fact that it has a full range of color models built in is powerful stuff. Not just CMYK, but LAB and many others. But GIMP has its advantages for some tasks if you never leave the realm of RGB.
Krita I tried for while, but I've been spoiled by Affinity Photo's selection tool. Can't use path tool or magic wand anymore
