I don't think you have to be ideologically inclined. Photoshop is already turning on the milking machine.

Subscription. Check. Paid add ons. Check. Paid color palette. Check and mark.

"This guy couldn't find the scale tool in GIMP... charge him $9.99 each month until he learns his lesson."

Agreed, luckily, Affinity exists and they are not only resisting subscriptions but also sell cross platform licenses.

Shit, I missed the boat on that one.

What's ironic is that I bought Affinity but still continue to use GIMP shrugs

One of these days I'll sit down with Affinity. One of these days...

That assumes that Affinity doesn't get bought by Adobe, or their license model never changes. Which in today's world is a fools errand.
