    I haven’t used photoshop or any other “industry standard” in more than a decade.

    Still, everytime I open Gimp I have to look up for the “increase/decrease brush size” shortcut, because it’s so dawn counter intuitive.

      The UI was overhauled in the 3.0 update on March. The new documentation says changing brush size is fairly easy: https://testing.docs.gimp.org/3.0/tr/gimp-using-variable-size-brush.html

      All brushes have a variable size that can be changed.

      You can change the brush size in several ways:

      • By using the default shortcut keys for changing a tool’s size:

        • Decrease size by 1: [

        • Increase size by 1: ]

        • Decrease size by 10: {

        • Increase size by 10: }

      • By using the default mouse scrollwheel actions for changing a tool’s size:

        • Decrease size by 1: Ctrl+Alt+Scrollwheel Down

        • Increase size by 1: Ctrl+Alt+Scrollwheel Up
