I think Glimpse do actually donate work and funds upstream as well?
By the way, I can only recommend follows, I don't think GIMP is on the Fediverse?
@FediFollows @reto Correct, we have donated $500 USD so far. We also provide direct donation links for GNU I.M.P as often as we provide our own so our users are clear that they have a choice.
We recently did an interview with Davies Media Design that clears up some misconceptions: https://daviesmediadesign.com/a-qa-with-the-glimpse-image-editor-development-team/

@reto @FediFollows changing the name was necessary work that the original project declined to do; all the more reason to support @glimpse
@reto @relsqui fwiw, we wrote an explainer for that here: https://glimpse-editor.github.io/about/#what-is-wrong-with-the-gimp-name
@relsqui @reto @FediFollows @glimpse I second that fully! No need to be a jerk by keeping a hurtful name.
@FediFollows @glimpse sounds great. I already use GIMP but will give this a spin, thanks!
