And if Krita was Photoshop, I wouldn't use it for illustration.
I don't want a photo manipulation tool, I want a painting program. Sure Photoshop can do all the fancy brush stuff, it can have fancy blend modes and stuff, but the primary interface isn't designed with that in mind. It's a manipulation tool. Using it for illustration is using a very broad "jack-of-all-trades" program for something very focused, and that broad toolset honestly kind of gets in the way.
I'm invested in Krita's future now, but if I wasn't I certainly wouldn't be moving back to Photoshop. I need a tool that's specifically designed for drawing. Pre-CC Photoshop had reasonably decent Wine support, but I've never been tempted to load up an old copy for drawing.
To the extent that Krita is trying to replace anything, the problem that Krita is attempting to solve is that Linux doesn't have Clip Studio.
