I use Photoshop for work, and I keep GIMP installed as a conversion tool because for some reason Photoshop is an absolute wimp when it comes to opening downloaded PNG or WEBP images. About 1/4 of the time I get "Not a PNG" or "Can't open image due to a programme error." Clicking the Help option in the error dialogue takes me to Adobe's help page about saving images, not opening them.

GIMP has effortlessly opened every single image I've thrown at it. After exporting from GIMP, suddenly Photoshop works. Bad look for the industry standard image editing programme.

I do like InDesign tho
