Gimp rocks. It sucks they're constantly getting curb stomped by Adobe's legal team.
I’m now curious about this but can’t find anything. Please help.
They have a lot of trouble creating tools that aren't patented by Adobe/ photoshop so they have to use loop holes to get them out. It often leads to the UI complaints people have. It's not really note worthy, but legally they can't copy and paste the structure of photoshop, even though they're a lot like them. So their software tends to be unintuitive. If that makes sense. It's mostly the tool names and the UI.
It's specifically the tools that were created by Adobe that take a while to get implemented into GIMP. If someone makes a tool in a FOSS program, it's an open playing field. Sadly, they're mostly copying Adobe/ photoshop so they run into potential legal issues.
Gimp also struggles with layer/image fidelity, but that's more of a resources thing.
Imagine if Microsoft had sued all the other browsers that copied features of internet explorer.
