Do other tools really exist, though? I do some animation in Blender, but the only real image editor I have access to with a timeline is pirated Photoshop which I hate using because their interface is garbo. There exist several industry-use programs like ToonBoom or Clip Studio Paint EX for hundreds of dollars.
I just would feel most comfortable animating in GIMP tbh. If they announced it was in the works I could probably even pitch in a donation to help it along.
