New stuff: Stamp-type brush customization, new watercolour brushes and workflow, brush library refinements (bet it still isn't well organised though
), brush size selector, refined layer workflow etc. faster than a very fast thing.

Oh, I see that they've decided to keep the wonderful "feature" of having incompatible layers and brushes, and have now highlighted this "feature" with an extra dialog box.

How can layers and brushes be incompatible? In a painting program? 
(Edit: Oh look, Banj added loads of stuff to his post... and I need more variety in the dumb emojis...)

Painter has a handful of special brush variants that use their own special layer types that you can't use other brushes types on. For example the real Ink brushes have a special ink layer. That has never bothered me much as I don't use those brush types very often. My own pet peeve with Painter is the way they organise brush variants*. For some reason they choose to group brushes from prior versions of Painter into their own separate categories instead of just grouping all brush variants of the same type into their respective categories and having some kind of indicator to distinguish which version they might have come from which would make life so much simpler and better organised.
*Actually another peeve would be the installers for their custom brush packs just dump files into my documents folder making a huge mess.

You know how in ArtRage all the oil paint, watercolour, pastel, pencil etc. all mix and blend together? Well none of that happens in Painter.
Each of the different effect/mediums can only exist on their own layer. In the version I've got (2019, I think) whenever you switch to watercolour or real oils or Thick Paint it automatically creates a new layer without telling you and before you know it you've got 20+ layers when you thought you were working on one. I guess the new dialog box is to stop that from happening while also slowing down your workflow further.

Thought I'd done a double-post then, Banj.

I guess I should have watched those videos when I posted them because it seems that the new brush library goes some way to dealing with my complaint about how they organised things.

I'm not sure why you think it would ever be possible to make life simple and organised....
