    That’s probably for three reasons:

    • some “interesting” UI decision in GIMP
    • force of habits
    • GIMP is not a replacement for photoshop

    Photoshop merges two very different things, editing and drawing. If you do only editing, GIMP is great. If you also do drawing/painting, GIMP is completely subpar, but Krita is fantastic.

    There’s also other tools of course. But GIMP, by itself, is not close to be a remplacement for all of photoshop.

        Maybe there are as many different Linux users as there are Photoshop alternatives.

        At least 2-3…I mean, some day, there will be as many Linux users.
