Paint.net
recently i went looking for a (slightly more featureful) mspaint.exe replacement for linux and found https://maoschanz.github.io/drawing/ to be serviceable.
- Lightweight paint

Basic image editor?
There is also Drawing, but I think it has no options to set compression parameters for e.g. jpeg.

Krita is a professional FREE and open source painting program
Drawing fits that description, but it isn't really comparable to Krita — the authors describe it as like MS Paint but for Gnome.
Pinta seems similar, but more Xfce-ish.

- Sick of being recommended GIMP for photo editing software - I need something more simple.
- Looking for a "M$ Paint" alternative with as few dependencies as possible.

Best Photo Management Software For Linux
I like Drawing for basic stuff resizing, cropping, rotating etc... Krita for more complex stuff.

Spectacle - cannot find cropping tools
Previously Spectacle used the kImageAnnotator library for the annotation function, so when that library got cropping support Spectacle got it too. For better or worse the new UI no longer uses that library, so I'm guessing the Spectacle devs will have to add in cropping support manually now. No clue if there are plans for it unfortunately, but I assume if work gets started on it there will be an update on that bug report.

It's available as a library (https://github.com/ksnip/kImageAnnotator), additionally you can use the --edit-existing flag with Spectacle to edit arbitrary existing images.

Spectacle 22.04.1-2 on Arch now supports cropping (plus a few other things)
That's just the last change that made it to 0.6.0, the actual difference is more like this.

When did Spectacle get an Annotate button!?
Cropping in Spectacle will only appear when kImageAnnotator 0.6.0 gets released, as noted in the bug report.

Lighter alternative to GIMP?
I actually just learned about Ksnip, because I first wanted to recommend you KDE Spectacle, but I noticed it didn't show a crop tool. I discovered Spectacle uses Ksnip's kImageAnnotator for editing and thus discovered Ksnip. Somehow Ksnip does show a crop button and other features that are not enabled in Spectacle. I think I like Spectacle more for quickly taking a screenshot, while Ksnip seems nice to have for a quick edit.
