It's not really about being incapable of learning new UIs though - I'm perfectly capable, I just don't want to. Why learn a UI that takes 3X as many steps to chop up a site design when there's one that takes X?

Sadly most artists who want to save money just pirate, which is what led to the terrible Creative Cloud situation. But that led to Affinity which seems to be a solid, buy-once (for cheap!) replacement. I agree the monolithic nature of Adobe is bad for everybody but that's not a reason to choose a subpar tool. Also people can write and sell their own plugins for Adobe products as well.

Anyway I think we're mostly on the same page.
