    People who like multi window gimp must be a very special kind of nerd. I used it before single window mode was added, but when it was I never looked back. Positioning each subwindow in a way that didn’t suck was such an absolute pain

      But that pain was once. And then you shoved that config into your dotfile svn and never did it again. Mine has followed me since like 2010.

      (This is not me taking part in the wl/X11 argument. I am just one of those multi-window gimp nerds)

      ah that was so annoying, and nowadays using tiled windows, that’s something I don’t see myself doing anymore

      It’s not a pain if you use a tiling WM, and doesn’t KDE remember and restore window positions yet?

      alias hc=herbstclient
      # GIMP
      # ensure there is a gimp tag
      hc add gimp
      hc load gimp '

      (split horizontal:0.200000:1

      (clients grid:0))

      '               # load predefined layout
      # center all other gimp windows on gimp tag
