As a long time Photoshop user who knows all the hotkeys I really really hate using Affinity Photo. I refuse to pay monthly for an app I only have to use every so often so bought Affinity.
I just can't use it. The hotkeys are different and none of the UI makes any sense to me.
If you could just enable a "photoshop mode" that changed all the hotkeys and UI then I could be useful in it.
I'm even reconsidering just taking the dive and paying monthly for Photoshop again.
- pjlegato 5y agoI'm another long time but occasional Photoshop user who doesn't know all the Photoshop hotkeys very well. I've been quite happy with Affinity as a replacement so far, and haven't looked back. The controls are a little different, which I imagine would be annoying to a hardcore Photoshop user who has used it every day and developed deeply ingrained muscle memory. For a more casual user such as myself, it's not a big deal. I have to look things up in the (well written, comprehensive) documentation sometimes, I learn the new Affinity equivalent command, and it's fine. The learning curve has overall been much better than I anticipated.
