Hey, I tried to get used to gimp as advanced image editor for a long time, but is just nothing I can work with, so I wanted to ask if you know some alternatives (for Windows).

do you mean the installation or daily use? my biggest problem was shrinking the windows partition, but after i got that, the setup (linux mint) was pretty straight forward imo. i quickly stopped using windows altogether after a few weeks. you can always use a virtual machine or wine or whatever if you need windows-only programs

It's a pain to constantly have to reboot to switch between them, you have less disk space, and Windows will sometimes interfere with the Linux installation. Plus there isn't enough things I can't do in Linux, that I can in Windows to justify it.

good point. linux > dual boot > windows
