There's like cracks for it out there already. If you don't want to, you could buy a license for SAI1 and use it for SAI2.

I went from sai to krita and I am using krita more now. I do technically like sai more, the pressures are better, more ergonomic, and a much light program, and runs smoother, but the lack of support for it makes me iffy. I also spent the $10 to own it/support it.

Sai is only good for sketching very fast with no lag the brushes are terrible photoshop is the best art app but it has fucking windows ink pressure sensitivity issues

Medibang/Fire Alpaca is pretty much the best "Sai-like" alternative if you're looking for something with a similar interface and lightweightness. Nothing will be as lightweight as Sai though. Probably the only program were you can draw in 5k resolution on a pentium 4.

The two videos I posted have artists that posts speedpaints in medibang. Also Medibang has a gallery website where artists upload stuff they made on the program

The best Sai alternative on linux is azpainter. Too bad they still haven't compiled it to run on windows yet.

>>4315565
Honestly I don't see a super big difference between the performance of Krita on Windows and Linux. Complicated color smudge brushes probably perform a bit better on linux. I think you should make sure to use the angle render engine.

I use a Ryzen 1600 and usually start painting on 4000x4000 resolution. Painting on Krita feels smoother compared to CSP to me.

it's focused on line-work, no really painting.
that said it's not like it's bad for painting anymore, plus it's still arguably the best for line-work.
I guess people see the stabilization option as a crutch? It is a crutch but it's not like you need to use it. People forget that it's meant to simulate the texture/friction of a brush on paper or something, but generally just putting paper on your tablet does the same thing.

switched to csp for 3 years and ive been good so far. photoshop is a meme but cc is alright now, it's just not worth the subscription
a friend of mine uses medibang which is free and it's very sai like, so you could try it
