This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

GIMP is also a massive pain in the ass. Paint.net is the one piece of software I still miss after moving to Linux.

Da Vinci Resolve is great though. Crazy that it's free and Linux compatible.

I'm switching to Linux right now and I haven't really looked into replacements for each piece of software. Used Paint.net for at least 10 years, tried Gimp first but didn't like it. What do you use?

Try Pinta. Unless you do digital painting/illustration, then go for Krita.
