This still blows my mind a bit - yes literally they should just copy Photoshop because everyone knows how to use it. Menus are fine, any complex tool has lots of menus. I have been wishing for a photoshop-like GUI frontend for GIMP for 20 years. It's not even that far off. That sounds ungrateful, and it's not meant to be - I know this is just how it is, amazing stuff under the hood and janky interfaces
I mean, linux today is full of macos GUI ripoffs and people love it - because Apple did some great UI design. I was using windows 11 recently and so many common things are complex to the typical user - e.g. making an application run at startup, anyway I'm in boomer mode so I'd better stop writing
