Can someone make a real open source svg/vector #editor. Something like affinity design, but runs on all operating systems. OSX #Linux windows. That does not use #GTK because every GTK app is not suited for real work when you wanna get stuff done I’m sorry I need menus lists and dropdowns no hamburger trash plz.
#krita #gimp #inkscape #pinta #karbon none of these fill the void at least with vector editing, & having sensible key bindings. I would be more than happy to pay for the application.

@arstechnica Adobe lost me the moment they paralysed my computer with background processes, to do things I didn't need. My questions, about what was happening, were not answered. I have always been a loyal, paying customer and would have remained one. But there are two things I don't like:

Wasting resources and being spied on. The latter is unclear. But with my cancellation, it no longer matters.

Pinta used to be my go-to image editing program for doing basic raster graphics/photo manipulation work. It ran on Linux, Mac, and Windows. It was simple. It was stable. In the past year though it has become so unstable as to be almost completely unusable. At first I thought this was just a problem with the Mac version but I'm having the problem on Linux as well both on the Cinnamon and Budgie desktops. Inkscape has some similar wonkiness on Mac. Are they getting bitten by some underlying GTK issue or is it a problem with both of these products?TBD but I'm now on the hunt for a cross-platform replacement for it :(. #Pinta #Linux #Mac #Windows #gtk
