      Yeah, I remember XP and Seven as solid OSes where everything just worked.

      Now it’s a mix of crap, hey this app is in night mode, this one isn’t! Want to change a parameter? Ha ha you can’t! You want to share a folder? Good luck!

      And it’s heuristics/analysis just because Windows is inherently insecure drags any pc down to a crawl…

      And publicity??!

      Aurgh

      Edit: can I run my old CS3 Photoshop in wine or something? And 3dstudio without crazy lags? If so I’ll stop using windows completely.

          Because I’m used to it I guess, and I haven’t found a single app that handles pixels and transparency well.

          Like zoom in like crazy, update 1 pixel, save, transparency is still there.

          Haven’t looked for a bunch of years though, maybe it’s time to try again :-)

            Krita’s always done transparency just fine for me. It’s pretty good these days. There’s also a built in option to set your keyboard shortcuts to the same ones that Photoshop uses.

            Yeah, I try never to underestimate the value of sheer familiarity. New software is like breaking in a new pair of leather shoes, sometimes you have to bleed a little before your feet adapt and you adjust it to fit.
