We've got a first HDR-enabled build of Krita working! There's still a lot of work to do, of course, but that it even works is already pretty amazing given how immature the technology is. Also, pity that the Windows snipping tool doesn't support HDR content...

It's been a crazy week with all this "let's vote for Adobe Premiere port to Linux". I kept wondering what free/libre projects can we realistically support financially instead, so I started digging and talking to devs. Here is the result:

#GIMP is a free open source alternative to Photoshop. It's probably the leading free graphics software, with new releases for over 22 years so far 👍

It's intended for photographers, illustrators, designers etc and lets you manipulate photos and create graphics.

It's available for Windows, Mac and Linux from the official site:

https://www.gimp.org

Laidout as an example of a working #publishing #software from an artist who claim the weird and idiosyncratic nature of its project, with a incredible tendency for redoing everything from it's own perspective, software as a #learning tool. Thanks for that also @tomsart
