Judeau, 4 months ago I really like Paint.net on #Windows and was hoping to find a #Linux alternative to the program. #Gimp is overkill for my needs. I stumbled across #Pinta and so far it looks great and seems to be a #FOSS copy of Paint.net. I'm still curious though. Are there any other similar programs that I should check out? #AskFedi #AskMastodon

buru5, 4 months ago @Judeau i loved Paint.net too and am using Krita now on Linux ... not as intuitive as Paint.net but packed with features. i am going to try Pinta now though, if it's similar enough to Paint.net then i'll stick with it. Paint.net is really just incredible.

Judeau, 4 months ago @buru5 I need to take another look at Krita. The last time I messed with it was several years ago. I am much more familiar with photo editing now so it would probably be worth the second look. I agree. Paint.net is amazing. It does absolutely everything that I need it to do and is very intuitive. Gimp is an incredibly powerful program but is just overwhelming to me and does far more than I need. For me, paint.net strikes a perfect balance.

bazkie, 4 months ago @Judeau I'd like to know, too!

Judeau, 4 months ago @bazkie So it's not just me then. 😁 I installed Pita and so far it seems like a decent Paint.net substitute, but I'll have to use it for a while before I can be certain. In the meantime I thought I would ask here and see what the Linux community suggests.
