Now that the project has avoided disaster, it looks like development is back on track...

Then discuss something to do with Krita and stop showing us a cartoon squirrel makes you feel things you'd rather you didn't.

How about we start with the fact that the Mac version is going to suffer from poorer performance and lack of features?

I'm not interested. You made the stupid thread, how about you open it with discussion instead of a cartoon squirrel that makes you feel things you father and mother would rather you didn't.

It's the fucking mascot, you assblasted homo.

Then why are you even posting here?

I think I hit a nerve... It's alright user, a lot of your type hangs out here; just keep your fetish to yourself. Kiki is NOT for lewd.

Seems the G'MIC pluging and worse OpenGL performance are mostly Apple's fault. There's not a lot you can do when Apple refuses to keep it's OGL support up to date.

Boudewijn Rempt sounds like a nice guy, so I wish his project well.

Most of the Krita devs seem nice enough, and they, as far as I can tell, keep their politics out of Krita.

Kiki is Spanish slang, it means fuck. How is that not lewd?

Most of the world doesn't speak Spanish (thank god). Kiki is a squirrel because Krita means that in Albanian.

Except if you go look at statistics on how many people speak every language, Spanish surpasses English, only to be beaten by Chinese.

Actually no longer true. Spanish has a lead in native speakers, but many more people speak English overall.

Macfag here, there is nothing really to discuss. Apple has been going down the shitter more and more with each year, the only new features in the last macOS update were literally all just more botnet. They have abandoned OpenGL in favour of their proprietary Metal API, and they are not even bothering with Vulkan to begin with.

Steve Jobs did not really care about FLOSS one way or the other, but he understood that there are good engineers outside Apple and NeXT. Tim Cocksucker's Apple is openly hostile to FLOSS, they are progressively getting rid of more and more FLOSS components in their software. Fuck Apple, the Krita devs did nothing wrong.

You're saying apple is done updating OpenGL?

that implies they ever tried. remember that apple are intelcucks, and neither intel nor apple know anything about graphics drivers

Look for yourself, the latest version supported is 4.1, while the latests stable version of OpenGL is 4.6.

Does the text tool not suck yet?

Where?

Intel's drivers are great and Apple had Quickdraw 3d before Carmack persuaded Jobs to ditch it and go with an industry standard. They can keep their Metal, but it would be stupid to ditch OpenGL entirely. Then again, Apple has been very stupid as of late.

Best free (as in freedom) software mascot.

Hey remember how great Doom 3 ran on OS X at launch? That cinematic 25fps?

They're going to dump Intel over the shit drivers in the medium-near term. That's why they've been building up their ARM capability lately.

In french, Kiki also means penis

In german, Kiki can mean "nonsense" („Unsinn“), but it's not that common.

It's getting upgraded before the end of the year.

Literally never heard it used that way in my life.

my arch is still at 3.1.4 wtf

add the krita lime PPA to your package manager :^)

Or just use the Appimage. Works fine in Arch for me.

Appimage for the first pre-alpha of Krita 4.0 is out:

Krita pre-alpha test builds: krita.org/en/item/first-development-builds-for-krita-4-0/

Damn. Even Mesa is almost at 4.6 support.

...

At least they admit when something is busted and intend to replace it. More than we can say for a certain other FOSS application.

Forgot pic.

Daily reminder that there is still no circle tool in gimp, the correct procedure is to create 2 circle selects and fill in the gap.

Reminder that all of their tools just work and are perfectly fine until they decide to replace them with whatever the developer wants, which to be fair is usually nothing because gimp developers are literally asleep 24/7.

That is because GIMP is not a painter program. GIMP stands for 'GNU Image Manipulation Program'. It's for editing images, not creating new ones with MS Paint tools.

Photoshop is also for editing images, but it has a circle tool.

Stop making this retarded excuse.

Select circle, stroke selection.

Stop making this retarded excuse.

...

The fuck are you talking about, nigger?

wtf does that means?

Pooer performace because Apple won't update OpenGL on MacOS, and some really good plugins aren't supported.

I don't use gimp, but you actually can draw circles that way?
All these niggers actually fucking think you cant draw circles because there isn't a fucking MS paint 'draw a circle' button?

Pretty much. GIMP has real issues, but a lot of the bitching over it comes down to the fact that it does things differently than other applications.

If it weren't for the goddamn stabilizer fucking up my curves and circles, I would've dropped SAI long ago.

>Use krita on vista back when I still had it with tablet
This is absolutely bullshit.

That's a driver issue.

does no distro do fucking QA or even run the programs they package any more?

Were you using a brush with rotation enabled? I've been getting into krita recently and I've found that brushes with rotation don't really work unless you're working with long strokes

Did you try the Appimage? If you have something against that, you can use Ark or something to open it and take the newer version of the gmic plugin out and use that with the version of Krita from your repo.

...

I knew this cheap shit would bite me in the ass

Where are the kiki lewds?

Kiki doesn't really appeal to furfags for whatever reason, so lewds are pretty rare.

In my top secret AES-256 encrypted hard drive

Sigh, here:

Here's a facebook-tier inspirational quote you've probably heard before.
