Gimp issue is not the name, it's the outdated UI and the dumb usage decisions like saving only in it's format. I moved to krita some years ago and I think that's the future. Gimp will still be along for a long time, and it should as its a great piece of software. Bit that's it.

Alternatives are good, and having krita and gimp is good.

Gimp name? Never even occurred to me that could be offensive. Not American here. Americans, get out of your asses (joking)... You are often offensive to the world but you don't care (not so much joking, and ofc I am wrong in generalization), so why should the others?
