It is pointless and is a reoccuring accumulating loss of time. But I curse them when I have to move content back and forth between programs to alter it. So like you I use several tools but I always share my thoughts on how to improve them with the companies behind. And I pay what they cost to reach my goals. I have the Adobe CC Creative Suite and Affinity Designer and Photo for some bitmap oriented designs. Personally I never could make the A or B choice. Knowing why some of the details matter so much to people is important. In Affinity Serif was ignorant enough to leave out the hairline width so their otherwise excellent pen tool is not great when you need cutters of some sort. I did not post this comparison to make an A vs B comparison (that fanboys on the Affinity forum would "discuss" like kids in a school yard forever) but because I like to see other peoples opinions about how they actually work. With a bit of usability experts and performance focus they could head Inkscape directly towards glory. But some implementations of tools and options are fine in Inkscape. I am impressed by the featureset and used it for hobby work for years but is unbearable to use usability wise and performance wise. What I found interesting about the video was the insights and compariosons of the tools, how they were implemented. I have Illustrator CC 2021 and CorelDRAW as well but do not like working in any of them.I need both - but AD would benefint hugely from just a few vector features (but their devs are not great at it).The more I use AD the more I know what purpose that program was made for (although Serif shamefully tries to market and sell it to everyone) and why VS is no match for AD in several usecases.The more I use VS the more I know what I missed in Affinity - the more I know why I need it.Your respons is also exactly what I hoped for.
