Inkscape 1.5 is a brutal middle finger to Adobe Illustrator, finally delivering the devastating blow that trapped, exploited designers have been praying to see for decades.

Inkscape is built on the blood, sweat, and shattered mental health of a handful of exhausted visionaries. They are stretching themselves to the absolute breaking point,

    i used inkscape for a project recently and was amazed how far it has come since the last time i used it, somewhere around 15-20 years ago. then it was quirky and homely, now it feels pretty professional. i was still able to crash it doing some normalish stuff though, so make sure to save your work often :-)
