Paint.net has feature? I find it is just a simple quick raster editor with little to no features. What am I missing?

A ton of plugins... To be honest, I didn't check if Pinta supports those and I rarely use any in Paint.NET.

Being lightweight, quick to start with just the essential features is what I appreciate in both.

It's just that for my simple uses (stitching bitmaps together, resizing, getting color values, pixel-perfect alignment, working with multiple buffers, turning toolbars on/off, editing in layers) Pinta feels much clumsier than its big brother.
