Photoshop is perhaps the most complex piece of software you can teach yourself without relying on any external resources. It's the opposite of poor usability and this was even the case decades ago.

Gimp and the Linux desktop experience are not more sane UIs compared to Photoshop and Windows. Both have issues, but usability is not among them.

    I was talking in principle, more than in the specifics.

    And I am very willing to believe you with respect to Photoshop, as I have never used it (I have occasionally tried, and failed, to use GIMP). My graphical needs have always been better served by vector graphics e.g. Inkscape.

    I have used Windows extensively (and still have to from time to time), and it's usability is at least as bad that of a (sane) Linux distro (OK, not Gentoo). It's just it's usually bad in different ways. Windows is exactly the case where it's about getting used to the badness, rather than about it being superior.

    Accessibility, on the other hand? That's still better on Windows.
