Color management: external apps

(Great course, tons of good info)

 I understand why “Filmic Log” is a desirable choice for preserving maximum information. Does this exist only in Blender? Krita, GIMP, Procreate etc. have many “color profiles” - no obvious correlation. Or perhaps one could be created? Thanks.

    As far as I know it's only in Blender, so it's best to just stick with whatever the other app can read even if it's the basic sRGB. One could definitely be created, but that's a bit beyond me! Filmic log is pretty similar to the look of raw files that come out of a camera though, so if you save as an OpenEXR it *should* be able to be read just fine by any photo editing software that handles raw formats, but I'd need to double check that.
