Need to keep Cobalt Tools in mind. Was looking for something like that.
Gimp has been falling behind more and more. Back when 2.0 came out it wasn’t as bad yet, but it got worse as years went on.
Never had issue with this. For my work I’ve always used Blender 3D, Gimp, and Krita. The one thing that used to hold me back from using Linux was my Steam game library, but then Valve introduced Proton and all my reasons to stay on Windows evaporated.
Been a happy Linux user for a few years now.
Took a glance at it, not bad price range. I’ll be looking more into it. Thank you. ^^
Hmm, for drawing when travelling I wouldn’t be streaming or hanging out on discord, so being constantly connected to the Internet would not be a priority, just that it’s good for drawing without a mess of dongles and cables.
Not being able to upload a WIP or a completed commission to a customer might be annoying, though…
Yeah, agreed. XP Pen is great value for money. I had a second hand Wacom before and it wasn’t particularly better in any way.
Yeah, I mean something standalone, not something that needs to be plugged into a computer. I already have an XP Pen Artist 13.
Pretty sure my XP Pen’s refresh rate isn’t 165hz, and I find it perfectly fine to work on, so I don’t need something with such a high refresh rate.
At about 13 inches the resolution of the screen doesn’t need to be more than 1080p either.
Hmmm… The PineTab looks incredibly experimental still. It’s a option, but I’ll wait and see how the development of this one is going.
Huh… Yeah, you know what? I never thought of looking at second hand Surface tablets…
Ooh, that one is quite expensive.
Good list if I were looking for just any tablet, but I’m specifically looking one with artist capabilities, such as a pressure sensitive surface and a battery free pen. This list doesn’t mention much about such capabilities.
Yeah, XP Pen offers native Linux drivers, and the guys from Open Tablet Driver have also made their driver work with older XP Pen models, so it’s a pretty great wired tablet for Linux users.
But… Uh… Yeah… I’m looking for a standalone, because travelling with my XP Pen 13 and needing to play dongle-fu with Steam Deck is very awkward.
Good thing that Lemmy is an open source federation, then. It’s not like Spaz on Reddit, where one dude can ruin the whole damn thing for everyone with a few bad choices.
No, he’s right. You sound like you’re writing a corporate ad.
Cutting edge versions aren’t stable either. You’re essentially a beta tester for new features that may end up in an LTS release.
I’d rather have an LTS release where things have generally been tested well enough to warrant an LTS release.
Enjoying a stable OS?
This strongly reminds me of WWII England and their “Carry on!” attitude. Read stories about how families would hide together in the London Underground, and just have casual social conversations with tea and biscuits while the bombs destroyed their homes above their heads.
Israel maybe has Judaism as its state religion, but that doesn’t make Israel Judaism. Does Israel really think people are that stupid?
