I mainly wanted to make this to be ungrateful and complain about free software, but I encourage others to share problems you have. Other than praying for you, I might be able to make a fix to the problem. I've added features to programs I've used if it would be convenient for me in the past, so if you have an issue/feature I might be able to help.

It's complex enough to make it slower to use than ms paint's text tool, but provides nearly the same level of control. You can't turn off anti-aliasing,

If you want to make pixelart thats symmetrical, the mirroring point has to be between pixels. You can't have this:
xΦx
it has to be like this:

I don't know how many people use it, but I think blender's UI is fucking astounding and would make an amazing video editor. If they stole ideas from sony vegas (overlapping clips auto-crossfade, drag sides of clips to fade-in/out, drag top of clip to change volume/opacity) and included basic features like (comprehensible) clip speedup/slowdown, audio/video reversal, it would be improved a lot.
I hope they don't just remove the feature. There aren't any video editors for linux that come even close to sony vegas.

The brush size value you're changing is the radius, which has a minimum value of 1. So the smallest brush you can have without doing something dumb* is 2 pixels wide. It makes pixelart textures a pain in the ass to make.

You need to make a custom "brush falloff" curve. They're supposed to be for giving the brush different types of softness/hardness, or a bokeh-type effect, but you can also use it to make the brush half as wide by making the curve bottom out halfway through.

This has been such a disgusting problem for so long, it became a meme: Someone wrote a wiki article about it. The bug-report turned 18 years old this year.

These projects are so large that it's beyond my skill level to begin to comprehend how to fix these issues, even the small ones..believe me I've tried..
