    Newer versions of Krita now come with G’mic built in, which add so many incredible tools, including a content aware fill that works incredibly well, and a really nice edge detecting cropping tool called foreground extract.

      Shoot, krita has content aware now? Other than non-destructive editing/layer styles that’s one of the big things keeping me on PS.

      It doesn’t even need to be amazing, it just needs to be good enough. I think the weirdest thing about krita for me was how you type text in a dialog box instead of on the canvas.

        AFAIK, krita has had non-destructive editing for a while now (while gimp just got it with the 3.0 release).

        The text tool is a pain point still, though thankfully a new from the ground up text tool over 6 years in the making is soon to be released for Krita this year, likely making it the most capable open-source option.

        Adding text effects, like colored outlines, on Krita is painful, you essentially have to type <xml> stuff without a decent preview of how it looks
