I don’t really like Windows but it’s for my gaming PC. My laptop does run linux. I don’t know much of anything about 11 and whether it’s better or not.

    All too familiar. I’ve been using Linux for years now but still keep a drive with Windows 10 just to use Photoshop from time to time. I really tried to migrate over to GIMP and Krita and they are amaizing tools for 80% of what I need them, but they are still not on the same level as Photoshop sadly.

      Yeah 😔

      I even bought an Affinity license to see if I could at least get out from under Adobe’s greasy thumb, but a huge part of my work is restoring vintage illustrations, which means I need to be able to set the White Point of a given image to shift colors away from yellowed paper.

      Affinity does not have the ability to set White Point. So I checked the forums and found this: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/10589-set-white-point-photoshop-style/ — this was posted 8 years ago, and still absolutely nothing from the Affinity devs. Since I figured out I couldn’t do White Point, I haven’t opened Affinity again, not even once. Money down the drain.

      Meanwhile, Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign just keep getting slower, and more bloated, and slower, and more bloated, and… repeat ad infinitum 🤢
