God almighty, how come I’m hearing about this for the first time??? this thing basically does everything GIMP does but better. I mean, node-based editor… are you kidding me, it’s incredible!
after a couple of hours of playing, their node editor is still a bit raw (not blender level), but the foundation is very solid. i’m willing to back this project financially (after I use it for a week or so), and I strongly suggest you do too (if you find it similarly useful). we really need more projects like this so that (a) people stop using adobe, and (b) GIMP devs finally realise that to maintain the audience they actually have to do something.
The reason you haven’t heard of it is it used to be a unknown pixel editor and then then dev went on crack and decided to turn it into a “universal 2d graphics editor”
I call it motivation ( : I mean no offense to GIMP, they’re definitely the ones who broke the monopoly originally. but since the time I started using it like 10 years ago to now with the release of GIMP 3 barely anything has changed, yet there already are quite a few open source alternatives that shine brighter at very specific niches.

And well … It worked so I’m not criticizing.
Supporting apps out of sheer spite for gimp is certainly one business model
