    Tried Serif Affinity? Photoshop is great mate but it's not worth that cash.

    It's too bad that Affinity doesn't see that there is a market for professional graphics software in Linux.

    Unfortunately, they probably look at the desktop market share of Linux and decided it's not worth spending time or money on. Definitely a chicken and egg situation.

    Your boss is also paying for time spent troubleshooting, which is why industry standards are a thing. People can help each other out, common issues only have to be solved once and the general pool of issues is smaller.

    I work with 12 artists who all use maya. There's enough troubleshooting to do on just that. Having some of them use blender, others modo, etc would be a nightmare.

    I can guarantee you not one person in our company is concerned with Adobe's stock price, yet everyone is on Creative Cloud. Industry standards are the logical result of groups of people trying to get shit done, not some clandestine conspiracy to increase Adobe's profits.
