Alt ForumsYeah back when GIMP was first released in 1995, it was called "The GIMP." Anyways this is a free photo manipulation software. It's similar to Photoshop, but it was made with Linux in mind. You can of course get it on Windows too, so it's not just a Linux based software. Have you ever used this alternative photo app?

I've tried it, but I don't like the name. Is that a joke? It reminds me of the math notation called LATEX, lol.

🤣I don't think it is but that's hilarious! It stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program. Which is why it used to have the word "The" in front of it.

I believe it's some joke or cruel joke.
