From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you're using it professionally, you need your Photoshop to be properly licensed.
If you're not using it professionally, there's no need for proper licenses. And thus you can...acquire Photoshop in a way that doesn't involve it calling back to Adobe's systems.
I mean, sure... But a whole lot of people use Photoshop professionally without a license.
Krita is great, though. Their Android version is even fully featured, so you can use a tablet with a digitizer if you don't have a drawing pad for your desktop.
