In your opinion, which FOSS software is by many considered "old" or "obsolete", but are in fact, in your opinion, in many ways better than the newer alternatives? (feddit.dk)

Seriously considering paying $10/mo for Photoshop just so I can replace my gimp with being encombured with bloat.

    I mean, In general I hate the rent-your-software trend, but 10 bucks a month for Photoshop isn't bad and the FOSS alternatives are just not up to snuff for anything other than the most basic of tasks. I'm saying this as somebody who struggled through learning The GIMP years before I ever got my hands on a copy of Photoshop.
