From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've used GIMP for decades and it's never crashed on me. Krita and Inkscape are also great imo. I've used photoshop. It's fine. I really think issues with the UI are mostly just an issue of what you're used to. I see exactly the same thing with people switching to Blender or Vi uses trying to use any otherr editor in the world
