I just installed it on Windows and the current UI is so profoundly broken OOtB that I searched bsky just for commiserators. How do you make the icons so tiny (bad hires handling?) and smushed and STILL need a (low-contrast) horizontal scrollbar for the tool panel even in a maximized window? Criminy.

UI screenshot of a "fresh" GIMP install showing the ridiculously tiny icons and the fact that the main toolbar overflows and needs a horizontal toolbar (this problem still exists if you maximize the window).

And yeah, I'm glad you said this... I used to use it a lot in my early webdev days 15-20 years ago, and even ignoring the (presumed) hires layout bugs it really does seem so much worse now. How?! bsky.app/profile/kati...

AND IT ALSO DIDN'T HAVE AUTO UPDATES APPARENTLY FOR A LONG TIME SO I STAYED ON THE SAME VERSION FROM LIKE 2013 FOR *10 YEARS* AND SOMEHOW IT WAS ACTUALLY BETTER THAN IT IS NOW I REGRET UPDATING
