    I don’t think the name is why it isn’t used so much. I think it’s because it’s un-intuitive and almost incomparable to non-destructive/parametric professional programs. You can’t even change text after applying a style… for many, things like this makes it practically useless for real work.

    Someone already tried to fork GIMP in order to change the name (Glimpse)… it didn’t work and they gave up.

    they’re called crimeflare for a reason. besides being a government goldmine having access to everyone’s encrypted TLS traffic, they selectively enforce censorship in unethical ways.

    why block kiwifarms when you still allow hosting monkey torture sites? or sites for sourcing bathtub HRT secretly sent to minors? they shouldn’t be policing the internet in the first place. this is dangerously close to invalidating Section 230 protections as well.

    there’s so many more reasons it’s not even funny.
