I've been too scared to buy anything from Adobe anyways, because I'm worried I can't get rid of them.

I use PS every single day and I can't tell you how frustrating the select and mask tool is to actually use. I've rolled back to 2020 version that seems to be easier to use but dumber product.

Looks like the very top of another, secret checkbox. Mystery checkbox!

Not a Photoshop user, so I may be misinterpreting that, but doesn't this outright remove some functionality from the hue/saturation panel? That "global colors" dropdown seems to be gone and the two "before/after" color bars were somehow merged into one.

This looks like it would require deeper changes to a user's workflow.

(Of course the missing focus/tab functionality does the same in breaking keyboard-driven workflows that worked before)

Useful read for all ux designers
