I like Krita. But to be honest, after years and years of using GIMP, I ironically have nothing but trouble trying to rewire my brain to do things any other way. The same problem that many people have when moving from Photoshop to GIMP.
Also, i fundamentally need DDS files, which Krita (AFAIK) doesn’t handle.
You should totally get on some PS forums and start removed about its UI being ‘backward and unusable’ compared to GIMP :)

Windows only sadly. I’m on Linux
