Something wrong?
Wrong devices, a wrong description, or it isn't really open source? A mod reviews every suggestion.
What we couldn't confirm3
- The license file was not provided, so the GPLv3 is taken from the README alone.
- The README does not say which operating systems Krita runs on, although the list says it is cross-platform.
- The README does not describe photo editing features, so the photo-editing group and the Photoshop and Affinity Photo fits rest on the list descriptions only.
