What apps/programs do y'all recommend? (lemmy.world)

I want to know what kind of apps/programs y'all recommend to people or just use personally. This is just in general, could be anything from a game to a media codec. I personally use Linux but stuff for other operating systems is welcome too.

Anyone have a good alternative to photopea for Windows/Linux? Please don't say gimp :(

I love photopea but the subscription model is lame. It turns it into another Photoshop.

I need something to do occasional art in that will survive my slow Linux transition.

Gimp is for photo editing.

Krita is for digital painting.

Another suggestion I have is pinta. But I really only do super simple edits like cropping, adding text, etc

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

I'll check it out anyway. Could be useful for quick stuff!

I quite like Krita

Looks great!

I'll give it a go. Thank you!
