The answer is very much "Don't run Photoshop"
(Fuck Adobe. There, I said it)
Fuck I'd love an actual equivalent alternative on Windows too. GIMP, while great in the past, is nowhere near modern Photoshop, it's closer to modern Paint, which is just sad.
There's a ton of people and businesses that hate Adobe, the lack of real alternatives is fascinating.
Krita, rawtherapee, dark table, digikam, affinity. Just depends what you are trying to do. If you're used to photoshop there's nothing exactly the same and it will take effort to move but I think it's worth it, I'm still on the journey of learning as a hobbyist and have mostly been using dark table for photo editing
Darktable is fine as a hobbyist, but it doesn’t fully replace Lightroom when you get into semi-professional and professional workloads.
I need to give it another try, but my 12TB raw file library is so unwieldy to manage that I haven’t tried importing it all there. Plus the AI generative removal and Denoising is pretty important to a lot of my workflows.
