I got a career out of endlessly recompiling X11 and Slackware so I run Gimp.

Seriously it was many months of constantly tinkering Because I couldn’t afford Photoshop.

I had no idea at the time how valuable to my career that was.

I also never want to go through it again.

+1 ! Although I am far away from coding, I know more about build toolchains and quality software packages. I also never want to do that again.

At least you learned your lesson back then. I just went through all of this for the nth time with Krita, having spent weeks being annoyed with its UI micro aggressions. Going back to Photoshop - again! - meant I could get things done.
