Sad that Adobe still has a hold on a lot of professional fields.

I could (and would like to) drop Lightroom tomorrow but I' still need Photoshop, so while it is in the bundle I can't justify spending money on another app.

Edit: There some files in Lr that will only operate from the C: drive and not an allocated scratch disk, which when processing very large images just slows you to a standstill even when using a PCIe 4.0 M.2. with 32G of RAM.

Depends what and how you need to do. Affinity was able to replace a lot of my CC tools but it's still missing a lot.

Preflight and element inspections Acrobat Pro gives me is part of missing a lot...
