Gimp is better suited for this role

Krita is a art focused program

You also cannot add information to blurted blurred pictures, you can only approximate

Gen-Z Indian here. It's for school kids, and they're going to be drawing gibberish anyway. Attendance is how they grade. Back then, we used to play around with Paint on Windows XP. Good thing they're getting exposure to open-source early.

Take 2 people that have not used gimp or krita. Ask them to daw a circle, and see which software they are able to do it in.

Gimp is a ux nightmare (or at least it used to be i haven't used ot in years) I will try gimp 3 when it comes out in 2037

GIMP 3.0 will be released this year, as far as I remember. (I already using the final test version for 3.0).

As someone coming from Photoshop it's really hard to get into Gimp with it missing the layer effects you'd expect, which you all have in Krita.

Krita is aimed for Digital Painting, not Photo Manipulation, Photi Manipulation it's GIMP's work.

I use Krita as an image editor and I prefer it.

Gimp is an UI nightmare, I don't recommend it to anyone. Krita can't be worse.

Honestly i don't see the problem, i've been using GIMp since around 2013 or 2015, i never had issues with the UI
