Affinity is free now, it's pretty good. I don't know how long that will last though.
Affinity is hard to use coming from PS because I'm not used to it yet. I should take a course online.
Really? It's almost the same for me. I wonder if it's because I quit Adobe a long time ago.

I'm a novice user and I find it confusing with the vector and pixel. Also the masking confuses me. Transforming layers is also different.
I find Affinity pretty easy coming from Adobe, with some caveats like RGB channels and some masking stuff
