I bought Affinity Photo and I am not enjoying the migration. Having used Photoshop for 20 years, there is so much muscle memory for a lot of tasks that were quick and are much slower now. It's really hard to learn and easy to feel disgruntled when you know you could have been done in a few seconds in Photoshop. I'm considering running CS6 in a VM or paying for the damn subscription.

I bought Affinity Photo and I am not enjoying the migration. How long have you been working with Affinity? It's not Adobe's software and it's not trying to be, so there is always going to be some period of adjustment while you get used to a new way of doing things. IME, that passed very quickly, and within a few hours I was doing most basic tasks as readily in Affinity products as I would have done in CS/CC ones, but my work is usually more in Designer than Photo. There is still quite a bit of useful functionality present in CC but missing in Affinity, which is a more serious problem for power users who have workflows and presets and plug-ins and so on set up with the Adobe products. But the Affinity suite seems to be developing rapidly, so perhaps in time this gap will close too.
