Yay! They've done some excellent work. It's an amazing piece of software. And has a rich history, too. Maybe this release is finally the kick I need to learn it better

I am always rooting for GIMP but man are they behind the big dog Adobe, as loathe as I am to say that.

And then what are the odds that it's still a decade behind photoshop?

Wait... Was it not released yet? RC1 came out probably more than a month ago

gimp 3 anticipation dates back almost over 12 years now. I remember an anecdote of somebody was writing a Linux book in 2012 and wanted to include gimp3 but couldn't wait for it

Ah, so it's the software equivalent of fusion power development.

I'm out of the loop, how's gimp holding up vs krita? Are they functionally the same?

Then came RC2 and RC3.

Many things are possible with both products. But Kritas focus is on drawing/paiting and animation, meanwhile GIMPs focus is photo edititing.
Just try them out. I really love both.

You said “full”. So the short answer is no.
You can import and export to CMYK and handle CYMK in some tools but, internally, GIMP is still sRGB.
I think one of the devs wants to add full CMYK and Lab colour fairly soon after 3.0 but it is hard to say how fast dev will go. Getting to 3.0 has take forever but a lot of the plumbing is there now. There were big features only appearing in 2.99 for years. I do not think they will need to hold back like that again, so perhaps things will seem to go faster now.
The other big thing that is only “partial” is non-destructive editing.

They actually got a GTK3 based release out before GTK3 went EOL. Congratulations!
Can they update ti GTK4 based before that goes EOL?
