    I don’t use mint so this might be blatantly incorrect but after a bit of searching on mint’s release schedule I would assume gimp 3.0 will arrive with the 22.2 or 22.3 version. With 22.2 expected at middle 2025 and 22.3 at start 2026.

        This is why I don’t understand the downvote hate I got for mentioning flatpak. Downvoted for the correct advice, which is so very Linux “community”. I’ve been running Linux since Slackware 1.0, and the only thing consistent about the Linux community is it’s eagerness to eat it’s own.

        There’s also a PPA if you don’t want to use a flatpak. Just be sure to uninstall it before upgrading to Mint 23 to avoid any issues.

          If your anything like me you’ll forget what PPAs you’ve added in a few months. Or rather, forget that you’ve even added things like PPAs. That’s why I stick to flatpak if its not in my distro’s repos.
