Hi Linux Lemmites. Recently finished up school and started working full time and kind of miss working on personal projects. I’m looking to try to make something in rust and try out gpui if I can figure it out or maybe egui. I also want to make something maybe even a handful of people would actually use as I find that motivating, so I ask what would actually be useful to you?
Edit: thank you all very much for the input, I think that maybe doing something akin to a “settings+” would be a fair target for me for a n initial project. If I make anything interesting I’ll make another post in this sub.
Paint.net for Linux. Most of my experience with making art digitally came from paint.net and there’s not really a good alternative that doesn’t require me to recreate my workflow from the ground up (Krita).
Pinta is technically an option, but it’s missing many of the features that modern paint.net has.
For now, I have to make do with a VM to run it.
Oh, it’s marked as “garbage” in the wine compatibility database 😕
The new Gimp 3.0 is quite a lot better than the last versions for digital art. Maybe try it again?
GIMP is still missing a way to draw a circle without some convoluted method. It won’t work for my needs currently.
replace paint.net with painttool sai and this was pretty much my experience
took me ages to flip over to krita and i still miss its simplicity
