I’ve been using Krita since early 2020 when my CSP subscription ended, and at first I used it as a temporal alternative to CSP but to my surprise Krita became my main software to work with. I really enjoy the tons of features it has and the engines for brushes, and it’s so easy to customize my workflow and everything runs so smoothly I’m just so in love with this program. I’m so glad the community is growing, I hope it keeps doing it. You guys are doing an amazing job with Krita and I can’t thank you enough for it. . . . Also Krita has a cool furry cyber squirrel mascot, and that’s like the coolest thing I’ve seen in any art program
Krita got Epic Mega Grant, it just wasn't really that "mega" in case of Krita: krita.org/en/item/krita-receives-epic-megagrant/ - it was 25 000, much smaller than what Blender got - 1.2 milliion... but it was a substantial amount of Krita, around one month of expenses, if I calculate correctly.
Yes, Krita is free but donations keep it running and also gives someone the pay to sit and make new codes, filters etc... to keep the program running and improved. Yes, people are having a difficult time now but one dollar a day or whatever you can give will help improve and develop the program. Look how blender improved after an influx of funds....it came a long way fast.....
Not sure if it's because I started going more hardcore with art, or because I changed to krita, but I have seen the improvement. I formerly used ps, but I felt incredibly contra intuitive for me. Krita is like a blank canvas of endless possibilities, I just LOVE how you guys allowed to make everything so customizable! (just to give an example I have changed almost every single key on my pc, and even I have a set of macros on my half keyboard: 1 for painting, and the other for animation. Also, the brush engines!!! They work amazing!!! And is so easy to create new brushes Variations!. And the reference tool!!! omg I always think how Adobe could miss that? I do the 99.9 % of my work on krita and I always recommend it. BUT.... nah there is no but,. Thanks for the great work. So happy to donate to this great tool! Y gracias por los tutoriales y bundles!!! :)
Desde que conocí este programa quedé maravillado y, aunque no soy un profesional de la ilustración, me encanta hacer mis pinturas y dibujos. No tengo ninguna pretensión artística. Siempre colaboro económicamente cuanto puedo (anualmente y siempre que la situación económica me lo permite, dados los tiempos que corren y contando que también contribuyo a otros programas de software libre y que utilizo a menudo). Siempre he valorado la dedicación de todos los desarrolladores y gente que contribuye con sus conocimientos para mejorar este programa y por eso me obligo a contribuir (unas vecen con más y otras con menos dinero). Pienso que este programa NO es gratis ya que hay muchas personas esforzándose para hacernos llegar a todos Krita y que lo disfrutemos. Por eso, si eres responsable, tienes que contribuir de la mejor forma que sepas y puedas. EN ESTA VIDA NADA ES GRATIS Y NO PUEDES (NO ES LÍCITO) SERVIRTE DE ALGO QUE CUESTA TANTO ESFUERZO A TANTA GENTE Y NO HACER TÚ NADA. ¡Estoy orgulloso de TODOS vosotros, de TODA LA FAMILIA KRITA!. ¡UN FUERTE ABRAZO!.
The only thing i hate when doing a feature request is getting comments like: why don't you do it your self or stop comparing it to other softwares. And thats what kept me from ever doing other requests, i think the community should be open and accepting that not everyone is a coder. Maybe doing a feature request is the only way that i can help krita grow
Making a feature request takes time if it is well explained, so thank you. Krita is listening but the time is limited. But sometimes good things come from a brief talk.
I used krita for about 2 years, and it is the moast confortable program for me. Im really glad that the program keep creating new stuff to my paintings. And all for free! thank you for all the work around Krita development. me and some of my friends from brazil use krita in our ilustration jobs :D
I Love Krita. I'm started using this amazing software at 2020 and my girlfriend too. but I'm Open Source and Linux fan sins 2008. I know how immportant is Community. I will try to help in near future. Thank you so much for your hard work. FOSS LOVER
Actually, what I love of Krita is that it's being compared to this big company softwares and it's getting very close. Yes, big companies always will have an advantage, most of them have decades on the market, but, some of them don't work for the user. Adobe, for example, when they change their payment method, it was obvious they didn't want to target one user, but a whole company.
Yep, is another perspective. If a company wants to gain money ok for them, In the talk Money is only a part. We will see in the future what we can achieve //RM
wish you the best luck, guys. I use Krita professionally for 5 years as a main drawing/painting app. Thank you very much for this piece of software. For everyone: please consider subscribing to the development fund! Even small amount of money makes a big difference for projects like this!
Krita is my first art program I use whit a graphic tablet, i never stop use it because is amazing and thinking is FREE, i really love the dedication for this program and support from the art community.
Sucks not being able to donate though, not that Krita would be the first thing I donate to, there are a lot of more/equally important things of course, not to say Krita isn't important. But without my parents' support, even if I did have a sustainable source of money, a 16 year old finds it difficult to donate to anything,
That's all right. Use it, spread the word, maybe even engage in the forums or online. That is also contributing. And perhaps one day you have some money you can donate. But don't feel bad if that's not possible now. 🙂
One of the main goals of open source projects is giving access to professional tools to those who need it - especially if they can't afford them. I'm sure the devs and all the other krita supporters are very ok with you and others using it without donations :) You'll be very welcome to join the fund once you can, but don't hesitate - you don't owe us anything ;)
Will it possible to make krita bit more lighter on PCs ? its a great software but eats up too much RAM. Do you guys have any plans for that in Krita 5 in future. I am big fan of you guys good luck for Krita 5 ❤️
Krita 5 will have lower RAM usage because it won't load all the resources at once, only when you need them. But biggest memory footprint is your own picture - and there is not really a way to solve it. You paint four thousand pixels with red, it takes four thousand pixels in memory (unless you smartly use a Fill Layer). And there are some caches etc. to make operations faster, too. Reducing RAM in that case would make other things worse, for example slower.
I use Krita and love it! I try to spread the word through my videos where I often use it. I will keep using Krita and recommending it every time I get an opportunity to do so ^_^ I'm looking forward to Krita 5! Thank you for your hard work Krita team! I'm on my way to donating again right now!
@ramon great video that gives quite some food for thought, I myself am often wondering how I can contribute more I can say a number of things about this but it will probably be a bit lengthy, I'll discuss it further on the krita artists forum if you don't mind
Hello sir, krita is a really nice software... A kind request from my side is, can you please make this program more UI friendly... (Like Autodesk sketchbook) for both animation and painting both... I mean simple but extremely useful.... Thank you for providing this free opportunity to all artists..
There are already some cool mods in development (redesign w/ borderless toolbars, etc). I use Krita every day professionally and just donated 7 $ to support the team.
@@KritaOrgPainting like buttons,slider also the options are popping out It need a flat modern design (I understand it's a hard area to work with so take your time and improve it in coming years to get a place in people's mind)
@@ajinrenfire Krita 5 has mostly flat design for buttons. But for whole UI redesign, yeah, if it's going to happen, then it will happen when it will be necessary to rewrite whole UI anyway because of the Qt 6/ANGLE sheningans, most probably. Otherwise, it would be easier to add new touch-friendly dockers and remake the UI piece by piece.
I would love to have some advanced vector tools in krita I tried to do a simple dinosaur vector illustration and the tools were so limiting and using them was so cumbersome there were not many tools to go with and not having small features which help reduce some time is so infuriating like I can't use the main color picker for changing the color of the lines and have to use the small default color picker and others would love to get more polished vector tools, please make it happen.
I also have a suggestion...there is this thing in ibispaint where you make two canveses into one and ofc you can undo that as well with the undo button ...i think it will be really helpfull if that was added to krita somewhere in the futuer

Afaik krita 5 should use even a bit less RAM as it no longer loads all the brushes at start. Optimizations should also make other staff a bit faster, so as long as you don't start to use bigger canvas or more complex brushes, you should be fine :) Things that will be better but slower (like new transform tool preview) can be disabled in the settings.
Recently I've found myself painting and drawing in Krita more than in PS. So I desided to cancel my PS subscription as an amateur and support Krita. May be when I become a professional artist I will come back to PS... or may be by that time there will be no reason to use PS for me.
I can't wait to start supporting this software, I've been using it for the past 6yrs and I recently started earning from my works.
Woah, that sounds great! I'm happy for you starting to earn from painting, and big thanks for supporting our program :)
