“My wife does a considerable amount of photo editing and our financial software is tied to our credit union, losing either of those would be a deal breaker.”
The GIMP for photo editing ; financial software may be a problem tho
There is open source financial software that runs in Linux.
I use GIMP because it’s free and I don’t do a lot of photo edits, but don’t be fooled. People that use photoshop do not like GIMP.
Kind of like trying to take an iPhone from someone and giving them an android. They both do the same thing but they don’t understand the other one and dont’ want to learn it.
