Thoughts on opensource alternatives?

- Inkscape is an obvious one --- there's also https://cenon.info/, perhaps Gravit Designer? Any word on Graphite.rs 's stand-alone desktop version?

- GIMP, Paint.net, Darktable and Krita

- Scribus or LaTeX or Typst

Paint.NET isn't open source, is it?

Oh, only some code for some plugins are there. Bummer. :/

Yeah, I don't know why I keep thinking paint.net is opensource....
