    I disagree with most of the negative comments because you can actually do image manipulation/photo editing as well, at least the basic stuff like auto contrast, color balance, saturation, blur, sharpness, image size, canvas size and so on.

    Krita doesn't have photo editing tools and focuses on painting

    Krita is definitely a great alternative if you want something easier for digital art.
