Fine, but it’s “asked and answered” at some point.

Not really.

I have seen zero discussion on HN previous to this post. A working photoshop clone should have been discussed earlier and extensively.

Now we have a post with 28 votes and it's already Flagged.

You mean like this? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49958850 [131 points | 208 comments]

Where the community basically says "yeah cool, but this is garbage software"?

Yes, I saw it earlier. Also flagged.

It seems like some sort of attempt to censor discussion around it.

Would it have stayed up, I'm sure this would get more attention.

In any case, the author didn't post the project himself since it's not yet ready to show off, being an early alpha and all.

Let's see if it will get a post once it is working better.
