It doesn't appear this app is trying to be a straight up Photoshop replacement.

If that's what people are looking for they can go to GIMP. So I don't see how that answer specifically indicates why people would be unhappy with the situation on Linux.

It isn't. It's an illustration tool.

Which is why this article is kind of weird: An (excellent! I love krita!) adjacent tool exists, so why do people want the tool that fills a different purpose?

Probably because people keep posting articles like this one.

Not in the article body, but titled an article 'Linux doesn't have Photoshop' and then talking about something that isn't attempting to be Photoshop is really clickbait-y.
