This should be helpful for people that learned Photoshop in the past (for work or in school). From what I understand, a lot of the friction with GIMP is the workflow differences, and potentially unintuitive UI/UX choices.

tldr: recovering Adobe Photoshop user shows you features in the very free and very open source gnu image manipulation program :D

As a life-long pirate, having full MS Office, Macromedia and Adobe packages weren't ever a problem, but one day I decided to start using FOSS stuff... and man, getting into GIMP was damn painful, oh, the horror!
I'm very glad for photopea.com when I need to do some quick stuff, but for GIMP, this guy here made a very cool setup to help us Photoshop users https://github.com/Diolinux/PhotoGIMP
