I got so used to GIMP back in my Ubuntu Linux days that I don’t bother installing Photoshop or other image editor on my Mac.

Besides, Adobe is an ugly company with shady billing/retention tactics…

The gulf is sooooo wide now though

GIMP is still trying to reach parity with CS6 days from 20 years ago, all for the gold star of saying “we did it guys”

Photoshop was basically done at CS6 (which was less than 15 years ago), so why not? I know the copy I'm keeping around to avoid Adobe rent-seeking is eventually goong to stop working on new OS versions.
We discuss emulators all the time here, so there would be less scrutiny if they just say that they are an aspiring CS6 emulator
Emulator means something pretty specific, it’s a ground-up piece of software with similar functionality. Not a PS emulator.
