What substitute for graphics/cinepaint?

I've never used Cinepaint but it's always sad when this happens. On the bright side, it seems there's some hope it could be revived upstream some day. So it's possible it may make it back into the ports tree down the road. Personally I won't hold my breath.

Have you considered graphics/krita?

Shall wait in hope for new Cinepaint. Krita is KDE, which I do not use. Not sure if Krita is HDR editor also.

GIMP is great, but it's 8-bit colour. It can read 16-bit images, but autotranslates them to 8-bit and cannot operate in HDR mode.

Am I missing something? From GIMP's FAQ:
GIMP 2.10 was released in April 2018 and is the first version of the program to feature processing with precision of 16-bit and 32-bit per color channel.

And here is a screenshot from my GIMP:

From the commercial movies made with using Cinepaint, one would think, the movie industry would prop the project up. 6 years since this thread, and 4 years since major activity on the project, something like that needs to be revived regardless of Gimp's status.
 
Something goofy's going on. The FreshPort's link goes to a dead page while Wikipedia's link works but the page states:
CinePaint for Windows is out for beta and bug-fixes are happening. Work on fresh Linux and MacOS versions is underway.

If you are press or want to be invited to our developers/beta-testers Slack channel, email Robin.Rowe@CinePaint.org and mention CinePaint in the subject line.

What's goofy? The domain itself still exists, as does the MX record for it. There's just no www address defined any more (which is what the port had). Why would anyone update the URL on port that was removed 6 years ago?
