A cool guide software alternative

From what I see there are literally just two people from beehaw here.

But the guy that says Gimp sucks is right, I tried it and it feels so awful and awkward to use. I commend the attempt, but I am not going to use it. And wouldn't expect s high retention rate for any artists referred to it. Maybe it's okay for pixel artists. Idk.

Krita is better for me, but still not good.

My pirated copy of Photoshop was lost after I forgot to back it up before I formatted my PC, went without it for a while because I couldn't find another one. Ended up trying Gimp and Krita and an older version of Photoshop, used the old Photoshop occasionally but lost that one as well when my hard drive failed. Now I have Krita installed, but in general I just basically stopped drawing. It's not fucking fun and it just feels so wrong. I've been trying to find decent brushes that work with my Intuous pressure thing but idk, none of it is good. I think there was one "ink" brush that sort of worked.

For Krita I cant even figure out how to move around the canvas without reaching for the mouse. I used to hold a pen button and drag around. Hold Z and the same pen button to zoom in and out. Idk how to do it anymore so every single change in zoom or location feels awkward.
