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.

The thing is Photoshop does a lot of different stuff, like photo manipulation, painting, and pixel art. But it's not really the best at anything besides photo manipulation probably. So it depends on what you want to do with it.
I need to be able to edit photos, raw files, lossless options, with layers, and a wide selection of touch up tools that can be content aware.
Photoshop is perfect, but I’m not paying for a subscription to a product that I realistically don’t need updates for.
I’d be totally fine using my old copy of photoshop CS if it would run anymore.
Gimp just had a lot of odd UI choices.
Rawtherapee?
I'd also have a look at Darktable.
