If you just want to crop a photo and add some filters to it, most vector graphics editors can do that and are good enough.

They said image editor, not photo editor. Vector images are still images.

There's a comparison to photoshop.

People use Photoshop where a vector graphics program would be more appropriate because they know and are familiar with Photoshop.

yeah, indeed, strange.. I always use Gimp in those situations. I'm fairly fluent in Inkscape and cropping images is not something I would use it for.

yeah, this is super weird, it's a vector graphics editor, come on people, use GIMP or photoshop for images.

The program is still able to handle it, and I know its features more than GIMP or Photoshop. To me, it's still an acceptable tool.
