A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Lemmy faces the same expectations problems as every free/libre software (feddit.de)

It's the same as with Linux, GIMP, LibreOffice or OnlyOffice. Some people are so used to their routines that they expect everything to work the same and get easily pissed when not.

Photoshop doesn't have a native G'MIC plugin feature. You can't wave that away as not Adobes fault!

That's how stupid you sound.

Different products have different features and different ways to do things. It's not Gimp's sole purpose to just clone every feature from Photoshop. It's not a Photoshop clone, it's a piece of software in its own right.

Gimp makes great use of the amazing G'Mic filter tool. Adobe doesn't. That doesn't make Gimp better than Photoshop.

Different software makes different choices and people choose whichever they want to use and shut the hell up about it.

My whole point was only that I dislike that people call it an alternative to Photoshop. That's been proven by your post. I'm not trying to have a semantics contest here
