I used to use PS and InDesign daily for creating flyers, posters, memes, agitprop, etc. for fun, for organizing, and just to help out local charitable or community orgs. I decided to switch to FOSS stuff a few years ago when I went all-in on Linux as my primary OS.
I can use some combination of Krita, Scribus, and Gimp for about 95% of my image editing, design, and publishing workflow. Every so often I do have to switch back to Photoshop or InDesign to do one or two specific things before going back to Scribus or Krita for the entire rest of the project. A few of these things are ones I could probably figure out how to do in a FOSS editor, but mostly they’re things that are either too convoluted or just don’t work (or at least, don’t work the way I want them to.)
