Maybe that’s because i’m not in the team and I don’t have to deal with all the really hard things, like fixing bugs, mantaining code, making things faster, dealing with different plattforms, and so on. I’m sure the official developers also want to implement several ideas they have in mind, but there are a lot of things that need to be done that are not directly apparent to the users, and the official team is small (very small).
I’m just an artist by training who knows to code (self taught) so there are still a lot of things (A LOT) I don’t know how to implement in Krita, but asking in the irc channel to the real masters helped a lot (that’s another part of their jobs, dealing with people like me, which takes time).
So let me use this post to also ask anyone who can to donate to the krita foundation. That in the end is what will make possible having a better krita. People like me may implement specific features, but that’s not really the backbone of the app. I myself started donating what I can since the dev fund started.
