Yes, I know snapseed is a mobile app, but that's the kind of simplicity I'm looking for. Pre-made filters, an auto-fix button, adjustment sliders, etc.

I have image toolbox on mobile and even that's a bit over the top with option (and I still haven't found sliders for brightness, contrast, saturation, shadows etc in that maze).

Linux or Windows programs are fine, I run both.

That's actually a really nice idea.

You can accomplish this with GIMP by removing all the UI panels (which it calls Dockable Dialogues) and tools from the toolbox, and then adding some of them back in. By default it starts off more complicated though, which I think is why a lot of people find it overwhelming to learn.

You've inspired me to do an experiment making a really simple and stripped back GIMP configuration. I can send you the config file if you want and you can let me now what you think.

Sure, if we can share config like that it could work for many people. I still want to see something that dynamically downloads the shared libraries/dlls for tools you add, but that requires complete rewrite. Maybe we can do it with imagemagick scripts
