Happy GIMP 3.0 release day to everyone and especially those who made this release.
💀
@a1ba Did Gimp 3 actually get released?
@alyx yeah, for real
@a1ba
There's not even a clear sign of Gimp 3's release in the News section.
I had to search around to find that there's a testing.gimp.org. And if you release a program on a page that starts with "testing", I'm gonna assume this is not the final release yet, and it's still some convoluted testing phase.

https://github.com/GNOME/gimp/releases/tag/GIMP_3_0_0
it's not. The RC tag is missing.

@a1ba My point seems to be flying over your head in a Boeing 747 Max. The average user won't be using the links you posted. The average user will go to gimp.org and will see that Gimp 3 hasn't been released yet.
@alyx 
I'm not a GIMP developer and can't fix their website.
But the release has been tagged, builds has been published. I think people on fedi in general are capable of understanding that the website might lag behind a little bit.

@alyx you remind me that I literally haven't made not a single release to my own software for years. But it's already much more stable, than anything we did before... just waiting on ports that lagging behind and not complete yet
