Gonna include Trump on that list?

"Support for forced sex" we have a word for that. It's called rape.
Photoshop has a nice looking UI but there are some very subtle but really useful things GIMP does that Photoshop doesn't. For example when drawing with the Rectangle/Ellipse tool GIMP doesn't immediately lock in the selection but gives me handles I can use to perfectly fine tune the selection down to the pixel, especially for the ellipse tool. I don't get that level of control over the marquee tool in Photoshop.
I can also freely scroll and zoom while using the lasso tool in GIMP and it can go between free draw lasso and poly draw lasso by clicking and dragging or just clicking to establish new lasso nodes. And I can just undo any of those nodes by hitting backspace.
The only tool I really miss in GIMP is the magnetic lasso but needing to drag the cursor all the way to the edge of the screen just to scroll somewhere else on an image makes the tool so much worse.
Nope. I got nothing.
Possibly, I know that in the current state kf the industry, Autodesk and Maxon in the last 5-10 years have gotten exceptionally stagnant in the development of truly new game changing stuff and are now looking at Blender and copying what is going on there. Blender really is leading the way with new tech and new tools that others are copying them instead of the other way around. And Blender has been doing a lot to make sure it can fit into basically any pipeline.
When even the putting puppets are saying Trump's plan is nonsensical...
Blender also has a huge benefit of a very active group of donors and a lot of support from the Netherlands government. Major industry organizations like Ubisoft and Epic Games have made significant monetary contributions in recent years to the Blender Foundation because they're more closely integrating Blender into their creative and technical pipelines
Blender Foundation I think has perfectly balanced the quality that comes from a centrally managed project with the community and adaptability of its open source nature and the support of the community.
They have a managed hub where a lot of fantastic community plug-ins reside but just as many high quality plug-ins are hosted elsewhere. They also do their best to bring in exceptional talent from the community officially into the Foundation like the hiring of the old Animation Nodes plug-in creator to work on Grometry Nodes and revamp all the other node based workflows in Blender.
On top of that, a rainstorm putting out the fire and crossfade to everything better isn't exactly how the recovery process isngoing to go for us...
You couldn't make Blazing Saddles today because all the actors would read the script and say "This is Blazing Saddles! This was already made!"
