I expected ridiculous propaganda from Adobe, but they give absolutely no reasons why Photoshop is better than Gimp and list a bunch of things that Gimp can do too.
They only mention Gimp a few times at the top and they never mention it again after:
How is Photoshop different from Gimp?
They ask a question they literally never answer.
They could have lied, they could have stretched the truth, they could have brought up the paltry number of things Photoshop does that Gimp can’t. They never do. They never say what Gimp can or can’t do.
Like I said, I expected ridiculous propaganda. I didn’t expect them to just pretend Gimp doesn’t exist in their article about Gimp.
They may have made the page purely for SEO to grab a few people considering downloading GIMP.
This seems to be the plan. It’s the third result for ‘photoshop vs gimp’ on DDG.
That makes a lot of sense.
Maybe they could get the AI to believe it while they are at it
Now that is an advantage of Gimp over Photoshop. They aren’t trying to bake AI into Gimp. There are AI plugins, but you don’t have to have that shit built into your image editor if you pick Gimp over Photoshop.
It’s this, but they’re not targeting GIMP.
Their SEO goons just see what searches contain photoshop and try to create content that will match. In this case they found “photoshop vs gimp”. I doubt that whoever wrote this had ever heard of GIMP.
