Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of GIMP 2.10.30.

What's new in this version:

Core:
- Do not follow subpixel font rendering choice from system settings for text layer rendering. These systems are useful for GUI rendering on a screen of a specific type and pixel order. Yet when rendering an image which can be zoomed in or out, showed on various screens or even printed, subpixel font rendering doesn't make sense.
- Rewrite the core selection drawing logics so that it works on macOS Big Sur and over. This is a backport (adapted to GTK+2) of the fix brought in GIMP 2.99.8 for Wayland and macOS.
- Ignore MakerNote metadata tag at export and only store the tags that go in it, hence avoiding partial invalid metadata.
- Color picking from Colors dockable can now use the Freedesktop portal.
- On Windows, move from GetICMProfile() to WcsGetDefaultColorProfile() because the former is broken in Windows 11.

Plug-ins:
- metadata-viewer: improve how XMP tags with multiple values are handled and shown (now each value on a separate line for better readability).

metadata-editor:
- XMP array tags of type BAG and SEQ are now on separate lines.
- Comparing XMP tags with equivalent IPTC tags with multiple values, each value is compared individually, instead of comparing the list as a whole.
- Many robustness improvements and other fixes to the metadata plug-ins.
- AVIF: prefer AOM encoder for export.

PSD:
- Skip sanity check for mask of rendered layers as some layer mask have invalid dimensions in such cases. They will now be loaded correctly.
- Fixed loading of CMYK PSD files without alpha.
- Fixed loading of CMYK images without layers.
- Fixed loading of merged image of a 16 bit per channel RGBA PSD file with the alpha channel opaque.
- PBM: large file export now always works and does not depend anymore on the platform's long int size.

Screenshot:
- GNOME shell implementation dropped because the D-Bus API has been restricted to core components for security reasons, thus our plug-in was failing.
- KDE portal moved as last fallback after the X implementation (when running on X) and Freedesktop portal, because KDE is also starting to block API calls for security reasons.

Installer:
- Extension .avif now associated to GIMP.
- Drop codepage conversion, use UTF-8 for language files.

Build:
- macOS support officially bumped to macOS 10.12 (Sierra). We would usually try to avoid doing this within a stable release but the conditions (lack of contributors) is such that it is hard to avoid.
