GrobPaint
Somewhere between MS Paint and Paint.NET. Multiplatform by default.
Paint.NET doesn't run on macOS. GrobPaint fills that gap: a lightweight image editor with layers, blend modes, and selection tools, built with web technologies and a tiny Python backend. The goal isn't to clone Paint.NET or compete with Photoshop. It's to have the tools you actually need without the bloat.
