Same, every new system that defaults to nano and throws me in here when I'm expecting vim I have to stop and remember what the characters mean right before changing it to use vim (like, seriously, I typed "visudo", not "nanosudo", why the hell would I expect it to open in anything other than vi or vim?)
By looking up the command. It took like two seconds and that was nearly twenty years ago. And I've been using it off and on since then (only off because I've not been consistently using Linux, not because I'm using a different terminal text editor; when on *NIX, vim/vi is pretty much all I've used on the terminal)
And that's the point, they came in shitting on the thing the group was there for
I'd still not ask that there, because people there are going to be more focused on the thing you don't want to use. A more generalist group would be a better place to ask that, as even the second way asked in a Gimp group is going to mainly attract people who want to defend their favored project or help you fix the issue with it, when that's not what you're after.
I mean, you can expect it, but you'll be disappointed for obvious reasons
Walking into a fan group and shitting on the thing they're fans of while asking for recommendations for alternatives is pretty much never going to result in a positive outcome
I found I could get Krita to work well with my Wacom tablet easily while Gimp was a mess for it and I never did figure that out... So I used Krita when I needed to draw, but for most everything else I found Gimp easier to get things done
Maybe they'll open source it, making the NT Core kernel that does a third what NT can, go through three or four iterations over WinNT Core 12, 13, 14, before getting it up to almost feature parity with closed source Windows and change the name to just WinNT
But they'll probably just make it a subscription cloud service like you said
I used to say that people have been saying forever that Windows is going to be made a cloud service and I'll wait till I actually see evidence that's happening before I believe it, but watching everything they've done around 365 over the last few years... I'd almost be more surprised if they don't at least try that at this point
For me, the Boost Lemmy app let me downvote even though my instance has it disabled... It just quietly failed and when I go back the downvote isn't there.
The Jerboa and Voyager apps, on the other hand, don't: Voyager let's you try but correctly shows an error, while Jerboa flat out doesn't offer it since I can't anyway
