Photoshop for 40 quid: Affinity Photo pushes pixels further than most

AMEN, I've long been saying that I find it so much easier to create good looking things in good looking software. GIMP's interface on MAC is so foreign and clunky, I find myself struggling to concentrate on what I'm trying to achieve.

Also, at least out of the box, GIMP does not seem to support any trackpad gestures, which these days make it feel so antiquated.

Affinity Photo is great and really good value in my view.
