At least GIMP doesn't have that monthly subscription BS?
(Also the copy of GIMP I use has the option to disable auto-updates unavailable somehow.)

I haven't used Photoshop in years. What can it do that the gimp can't?

Because GIMP is free, that's why people use it.

I exist in the world of Linux, so my GIMP updates through my package manager.
Disabling auto-updates sounds like a Windows thing.
Gradiants, zoom with CTRL + and CTRL -, much better support for printing on larger than normal paper
Photoshop CS2 was available on Adobe's website for a time, with copy protection removed.
It's still free if you know where to look, and it is still better than GIMP.

GIMP's open source nigger. If it doesn't have a feature you want, add it in and submit a pull request. Only faggots whine about free shit people work on for free.

GIMP does gradients.
Last Photoshop I used regularly was 7, and I think the very early CS ones. Then I switched over to GIMP by the end of the '00s.

No casual user gives a flying fuck about being legal.
Photoshop has all the features I could ever ask for and it cost me zero dollars.
GIMP costs me in time trying to figure out why it won't fucking do what I need it to do. Time is money, especially when you're Jewish.
Indeed, it does gradients. I think the problem I was having is that the color space of the file I was working on was very small, because it wouldn't do a gradient to save its life.

this casual user does, i would prefer to pirate as little as possible. also gimp has a funny dog favicon which means it automatically blows PS out of the water.

Then why don't you use photoshop instead of wasting time whining about gimp when you could be making money. Or is running Photoshop on Linux too difficult for you?

It's for people like me who are too cheap to buy PS but are scared of pirating.

Wine's handling of MDI programs is buggy at best.
Often I give the OSS way of doing things a try before resorting to Win32 programs. Sometimes it works out, other times it really doesn't.
I have Photoshop CS2 in a WinXP virtual machine as a workaround.

Then why are you here bitching about software you don't use instead of out grinding those shekels? Come on now time is money afterall.

This is my downtime, I'll spend it however I want.
Shekel is the currency of the Israeli ratkike, I do not use it. Why should I, when I got gold, and the US Dollar.

You underestimate how much of a time sink modern Windows can be. At least I can get Linux to do more or less what I want it to, unlike Windows or GIMP.
GIMP is peak open source UI design right up there with xcalc.
If gimp didn't exist we wouldn't have this either:
