How about presenting the actual photo editing features instead of telling potential new users about the QT framework and C++ or whatever it uses? The website is peak "programmer attempting marketing".

Requires installation of weird undefined "CutoutPro" shit.

That's a nope from me, dawg.

Yes, I did try to install it on Windows.

Still, that really disqualifies it from being open source...

Like "free" software requiring installation of weird browser toolbars back in the day. I still have nightmares about those things.
