A month ago I switched from Windows to Linux (CachyOS). Overall, Linux is a good choice for me as a developer. But I haven't found an equal alternative to Paint.Net. I've tried Pinta, Krita and Gimp but all of their selection systems feels weird (or I just don't get it yet). Furthermore, I haven't found any drivers for my Epson printer/scanner. Does anyone have experience with it?

@FinnFreitag Same here 🙂

I have settled for "Drawing" for now, although it seems, development is somewhat slow (not to say halted)

Drawing - an alternative to Paint for Linux

Drawing is a simple image editor for Linux, inspired by Paint

@FinnFreitag With CUPS, you don't need a driver; you select the generic one and it should work for 99% of all postscript-compatible printers. Would be a real surprise if it wouldn't work; https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/CUPS should be applicable for you.

@ftranschel Thanks, this works great!

@tynstar Yes, thanks a lot for that recommendation. I tried it the last few days and it is a valid Paint.Net replacement.
