From 93d8f8917cee923c8f930423f88b3ec80a73503a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jehan Date: Sun, 12 Oct 2025 11:41:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "desktop: Make clear that GIMP is positioned as professional program" This reverts commit c4b4f343d4284c801dbe8258ae6cdf28d2d1a603. Though I did obviously say such things, I think we must think more thoroughly on how we want to word it, since it is the entry point to our software. So it's pretty important. Also using the word "professional" in particular is problematic as we seem to exclude various amateurs (in the laudative sense of the term) of high skills. Wording such as "advanced", "expert" or "high end" may be more appropriate. Anyway reverting until we make a team decision for better wording. --- desktop/org.gimp.GIMP.appdata.xml.in.in | 16 ++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/desktop/org.gimp.GIMP.appdata.xml.in.in b/desktop/org.gimp.GIMP.appdata.xml.in.in index 13491673d6..49856f4776 100644 --- a/desktop/org.gimp.GIMP.appdata.xml.in.in +++ b/desktop/org.gimp.GIMP.appdata.xml.in.in @@ -14,25 +14,25 @@ GPL-3.0+ AND LGPL-3.0+ The GIMP team GNU Image Manipulation Program - Create images and edit photographs professionally + Create images and edit photographs
