Installing GIMP with Flatpak: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you tired of having to reinstall GIMP every time a new version is released? With flatpak, this hassle can be a thing of the past. In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of installing GIMP using flatpak.

Before we begin, it's worth noting that the official package from your Unix-like distribution is still the recommended method of installing GIMP. However, if you're looking for an alternative, flatpak is a great option.

To get started, simply click on the flatpak link above, which should open your software installer and prompt you to install GIMP. From there, follow the prompts to complete the installation process.

Once installed, GIMP will be available exactly the same way as other applications on your desktop - through menus, the desktop overview, or any specific application launch process used by your desktop.

One thing to keep in mind is that the flatpak build of GIMP is still new and has some known limitations. However, it's expected to provide faster updates following GIMP releases, so this may be a good option if you're looking for a more streamlined experience.

It's also worth noting that the i386 and ARM-32 versions of GIMP are no longer being published, so you'll need to choose your installation medium according to your flatpak build - either x86-64 or AArch64.

In conclusion, installing GIMP with flatpak is a great way to get this powerful image manipulation tool up and running on your desktop. With its new technology and faster updates, it's definitely worth considering if you're looking for a more streamlined experience.
