There's that old war trick: crawl towards the opposing army in the
dark and make as much noise as possible like there's an army of you.

I'm sorry you had to crawl, but the noise isn't fooling me. A lot of
people are happy with 2.8, the user base is growing. If you are not
one of them, it's a pity, but stuff like that happens everywhere, all
the time, to all sort of projects.

Oh, there are many reasons imaging professionals regard GIMP poorly.
Would you like to discuss all of them? :)
