      You ain’t even getting it doing that. There’s been a bug since 2.10 with transparency. Export anything and you get a crushed alpha channel. Import it into anything else and the alpha looks crazy high contrast. Import it into GIMP again and the contrast is normal, but the channel is still crushed, so it’s banded as fuck.

      They say it’s intended behavior, which would make sense if GIMP was a dedicated image corruptor.

        [email protected] Sorry, what are you people talking about? I have precisely this GIMP version (to be exact, 2.10.28, in a very out-of-date Linux setup) and I never experienced problems with transparency/alpha channel. And I’ve been using GIMP since… I dunno, 2019?, even earlier, when I started to become accustomed to GIMP… I mean, I guess y’all talking about exporting a PNG file from GIMP, right? Or are y’all actually talking about other image formats?

      You think GIMP is your ally? I was born in it, learned to image edit on it. I didn’t touch Photoshop until I was already a man.

      (Seriously, though, once you actually get into GIMP and learn it well, it works pretty great. I struggle trying to use anything else.)
