    Gimp, Inkscape, and Scribus were terrible to use after using Adobe for years. Get Affinity suite instead and save yourself the rage and frustration. It’s one-time payment license (not a subscription) and they have deals. I got the license for the three of them for $90. They are way closer to Adobe products and definitely worth the one-time cost.

    I love the concept of open source, but you can only make so many compromises in quality and usability, especially if you’re likelihood depends on it. Gimp, etc just aren’t there.

    (On the other end of the spectrum, Blender is so amazing I can still hardly believe it.)

      I think this is a false dichotomy. You contradict yourself in the next sentence with an example that FOSS isn’t necessarily inferior.
