GIMP

Ahh, if Gimp was a type of person easily identifiable by an outward trait, I would throw javelins at their cocks.
And miss on purpose if it meant getting a head shot.
Fuckdamnit do I hate Gimp. I'd rather stick my newly roused genitalia in a rambunctious beehive than ever use that shitpile again.
The asswipe magnitude of the developers must be near the MAXIMUM point, which is always serious.
Fuck Gimp. I hope they go extinct.

You have obviously never used it. It's like OpenOffice (but much worse): technically there's nothing wrong with it, but in practice it feels like utter shit.

There are plenty of great FOSS applications. This Gimp is not one of them.

It's funny how people talk about "branding" and "inertia". How come Firefox has gained its marketshare? It's the king amongst people who know that you can use another browser besides that "blue e" in their desktop. I assure you a higher percentage people who use Photoshop have heard about Gimp than people who use browsers have heard abut Firefox, yet nobody uses it.

The difference is that Firefox is actually decent.

And now that I've mentioned browsers, do you know why Chrome has managed to gain one in every thirty people, eating marketshare from most previous players? I mean, it has less features than the competition. It doesn't really have any "killer" feature over the paper.

But it feels fucking great. Benchmark numbers will show nothing conclusive, feature charts will sow it in bad light. But once you use it, you'll understand instantly the appeal it has. Suddenly all the other garbage feels clunky in comparison.

Fortunately the Firefox devs actually listen and have a clue, and are trying to copy the good aspects (i.e. totally rip the user interface and implement the multiprocess stuff).

tl;dr: Enjoy your piece of shit, people like you are the reason I have to waste 30 minutes pirating Adobe's garbage every now and then.
