@redstarfish I didn't think you would choose GIMP, Starfish. I thought if it were you, it'd be Inkscape. Cool, anyway!
Good news: now 
and 
emoticons are available on FLOSS.social instance thanks to sir admin @downey. I am really grateful, Sir!
It is still under 1 hour and participants are already 70 persons. Thank you, Friends!
It is only 3 hours and this poll reached 100 participants. Amazing. I am curious to see the final result next week.
Hello friends who are involved in this toot at the moment, below is my desktop with free design software. It is @ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa when I wrote this toot. How are yours? Let me see.
(it is used on my latest article Ubuntu Graphic Design Suite https://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2020/06/complete-graphic-design-suite-on-ubuntu-2004.html)

@ademalsasa GIMP every day
@ademalsasa
Krita for raster and Inkscape for vector.
@gamayun @JoshuaRystedt thanks, I found new friends here. I personally use Inkscape everyday.
@ademalsasa @gamayun the two apps have different uses. Inkscape is my go to SVG editor. But I have graphic artists at my company to handle most of that.
@ademalsasa
I've used Blender and Gimp a lot in the past.
I recently switched to Glimpse (fork for name change of Gimp).
The one I use the most these days is probably Darktable.
I also use Kdenlive from time to time to make reactions gifs (actually in H264 or VP9)
@freyja_wildes really nice to hear! Amazing, I can meet Darktable user here at Mastodon.
@ademalsasa i wrote GIMP, but its actually Glimpse now
@matt ah, happy to see you use Glimpse, Matt. Do you use it on Fedora?
@ademalsasa i do, yes. Though im using the flatpak, since Fedora doesnt package it.
@matt one more talk about Flatpak I found. Thanks, I guess you often share about Flatpak here at Mastodon?
@ademalsasa out of the different alt distribution/sandboxed approaches, Flatpak is the one to beat IMO. AppImage is good but it doesnt have a central way to update many AppImages at once (flatpaks are easy to bulk update).
I detest snaps for many reasons.
@matt thanks for sharing your experiences! I am glad to hear this.
@veer66 nice, Veer. I am waiting emoticon arrived on my FLOSS.social instance.
@ademalsasa I kinda use all of these, plus Krita
@ademalsasa it's hard to quantify which one I use the most because they have different roles
@aeonofdiscord very nice. Do you do animation?
@ademalsasa not much, I really want to get into it though. I tried animating in Krita but it's really not set up for it
@bub wow, see the new graphics design tool I found here: Grafx2 http://grafx2.chez.com, The ultimate 256-color painting program, which is GPLv2 licensed and also available at GuixSD system. Amazing, thanks for sharing.
PS: do you use Haiku OS?
@ademalsasa Does Scribus count? Then that. XD
@minx cool, of course! I am a Scribus user too. Thanks for sharing!
Gimp by a longggshot.
I stumbled on Gimp maybe almost two decades ago at this point and ever since I have known it as a reliable tool that on any computer is 2 mins and an internet connection away and that is really pretty awesome.
Inkscape is awesome too! I just find myself editing raster images more.
Glimpse, quite often.
@abloo mmmm, so it is like that. Thanks, I could learn much just from a message from you.
@fedilab Feature request! 😃
Custom emojis in polls. (see post above)
That should work. It's a bug that I didn't know.
@ademalsasa Darktable - photo editing. Inkscape would be second, but I do use the GNU imp if I need to do during to a picture I didn't take.
@anne wow, even I can meet Darktable user here. Thanks for sharing, it is cool.
@hj thanks, what a funny reinterpretation you have here.
It's the first I used on Linux and I'm not a graphic pro so for what I do(basic resize, some layer stuff) I see no need to learn anything else.
@ademalsasa I mean it's kinda apples and oranges 😛 I don't do 3D modeling in GNU Imp 😛
@ademalsasa
Actually I'm not an expert in Graphics. I do the minimum things. That's why GIMP.
@redstarfish that's nice! Thanks for sharing. And also, on my FLOSS.social, now I can use and finally.
@ademalsasa ImageMagick (I tried GraphicsMagick too which is supposed to be faster but I find it is a bit buggy)
@michel_slm hello Michel Salim, I followed your posts and especially those about Fedora. Cool, thanks for sharing ImageMagick!
@ademalsasa hello there! A fellow Indonesian? (Your blog doesn't list a country but it sounds more Indonesian than Malay, your name too) 🇮🇩
@michel_slm yes, I am Indonesian, Michel Salim. Glad to find you at Mastodon!
@ademalsasa
You want to see my desktop at the current moment? I don't have those graphic design software installed though.
@ademalsasa
Thanks for asking. I had to attach two images as I spent most of my time in terminal and that's what I see. Also left dash board shows some of the quickly accessible programs. And it only becomes visible when the pointer hover over that region. Mainly I lauch programs from terminal though so it's also rarely used.

Thank you, sir admin @downey. Thanks to your addition of
emoticon at FLOSS.social instance, finally I can make this poll.
Honestly, I wish other emoticon will be added too particularly
:kdenlive: :mypaint: :synfig: and anything else I mentioned at my Free Graphics Suite https://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2020/06/complete-graphic-design-suite-on-ubuntu-2004.html. Thanks in advance!
