Pros
Pro Interface gets out of the way
MyPaint mostly consists of the canvas. The interface to select different brushes can be brought up if needed, but it generally stays out of the way of getting things done.
Pro Good support for pressure sensitive graphics tablets
MyPaint was designed specifically with pressure sensitive graphics tablets in mind.
Pro Good media emulation
Pro Forgo the need to resize the canvas
If a user needs a bigger canvas all they need to do is zoom out instead of re-sizing.
Pro Works in the browser
Pro Live previews for mobile
Mirrors your designs to your phone in realtime.
Pro Allows for real time collaboration
Pro Has all the core functionality you'd expect from something like Sketch
Pro Integrates with Slack
Provides integration with Slack.
Pro Provides a free version
Does not require a paid subscription for use. Can be used freely with a lot of features. The free use allows very limited collaboration.
Cons
Con Is not stable at all
I could not even open a png file to start without the software to freeze.
Con Not a lot in terms of image manipulation
MyPaint focuses only on drawing. It has very little in terms of post processing or image manipulation features.
Con Inefficient workflow
