That’s why I said ‘between’ - it’s been well beyond a decade since I used anything adobe. I actually moved to Affinity myself, but a friend is enjoying Krita so I might give that a go the next time I need a proper editor for a project.
It’s boggling how adobe still has the university market by the balls and how that’s all they teach for multimedia, at least where I’m from. Even in high school, Apple computers and Adobe software, “it’s what the industry uses”, and that’s why I got into it myself; but I always was so perplexed - to use a tired phrase - if ‘the industry’ jumped off a bridge, would [they] follow? It sure seems like most in the education sphere would say “happily!” and leap to their demise.
You can get GIMP surprisingly far with addons such as PhotoGIMP (adds Photoshop shortcuts and improveS GUI), Resynthesizer (Adds content aware fill), and G’mic (adds hundreds of powerful filters and tools, such as an assisted cropping tool. Also works with Krita).

I’d say you’re better off actually ripping off the bandaid if you can.
The more users that actually use Foss alternatives. The more the foss community will benefit.
