    Let me hijack your comment mentioning Krita with another KDE app: Okular!

    I simply can’t believe a PDF app can be this performant, this fully featured, and entirely free. It even works on Windows, if you’re trapped in that nightmare.

    Adobe Acrobat Reader, from the people who created the PDF format, is unbelievably slow, it takes a thousand steps through an ugly UI to do anything useful, and any feature you actually care about is locked behind payment. Okular, a free tool, will load PDFs instantly, render previews flawlessly, let you edit, sign, merge, add text, select text, whatever you wish.

    And KDE creates this app and a thousand others for less money than Mozilla wasted on some random bs last year. Long live KDE.
