Checkout lazpaint for a neat bitmap editor! https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazpaint/
Not exactly a Pinta replacement/alternative; requires some training/learning before being able to use it efficiently and as far as I could see it doesn't provide with the vary basic tools Pinta does, i.e crop tool. However, it is a good tool which can come handy. On a second thought, I wonder whether installing another software to do something is even necessary when there are already a couple in LL which can do the same; GIMP and Imagemagick. We know GIMP offers the same and many more editing options than Pinta and so does Imagemagick.

Cropping is done by selecting the area you want to keep - then invert selection - delete. It has the advantage of cropping to any shape you can select

That's exactly why I said that some training/learning is necessary since unlike Pinta, some tools/features are not self evident. Cropping involves 3 steps; select, invert and delete while with other tools one can simply use the crop tool select and crop, that's it. I'm not saying lazpaint is bad, quite the opposite, but it's not exactly user-friendly.
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us
