      They aim to introduce that in version 3.0, which they say will be a complete overhaul of the app.

      Non-destructive editing through live adjustment layers is definitely the single most useful feature any editing software can have.

      That alone makes life so much easier.

        I’m still rooting for them, but I know it’s a lot of work to ask from volunteers. As a casual user of the GIMP I feel like it hasn’t changed that drastically in the last 15 years. The biggest change I can remember is them migrating from separate windows to a unified window.

        I remember people saying “3.0 is right around the corner” several years ago.

        I categorize GIMP 3.0 the same as ASOIAF, Star Citizen, and the Google Drive client for Linux. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if I see it, but I ain’t holding my breath.
