        It’s also not helped by the fact that Windows no longer comes with a decent Paint program. Paint3D is weird af, takes forever to open and I don’t know a single person who actually uses it.

            Oh, good to know! I went from Win10 straight to Linux on my PC, and never needed it on my Win11 Work Computer, so I didn’t know about that.

            Random sidenote, programming Paint yourself is an amazing beginner project! It’s easy to explain, gives quick visual feedback when you change parameters and is very open-ended so that you can be very creative in expanding on it. I’ve let like half a dozen interns do that and they were very excited about it every time haha

          I disagree. The default paint programme in windows scales images by the pixel really well. Haven’t used it for anything else though

        One thing I will note about generative AI images is the use weird color gradients so it would be really obnoxious to cover over the text and have it not look like shit
