Install Gimp on Ubuntu 20.04
The installation instructions provided on the Gimp website (https://www.gimp.org/downloads/) uses Flatpak. This can create problems for Ubuntu users including:
– A broken / frustrating installation process
– Slow startup time for the program
– Missing icon / launcher
In this tutorial we show an easier way using Ubuntu’s default package manager.
