Of course, they didn't state how many bugs, based on customer input, were not fixed.
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

Exactly. So they fixed 50 bugs from the previous version and probably introduced 50+ new bugs to the current build.

This is Corel we are talking about. They will have added more than 50!

The problem is ... when they get it right, they are damn good. Just like Microsoft (just look at VS!)
But when they aren't right on the ball they just toss in crap and it all gets in the way. Just like Microsoft.
And they never admit they were wrong and undo changes. Just like Microsoft.
And they never listen to customers. Just ... like ... Microsoft.
Hmmm ... I see a theme here ...

It's never stopped working on me (other than crashes) even when updates are out. I generally update to the previous version just before the new one comes out, because the offers get much, much better (within the limits of Planet CorelPricingStructure which is clearly not for the mind of mere mortal man.)

Another one to be aware of is Krita. It is free, and quite powerful as it is designed around painting (and can handle screen shots). This video brought it to my attention.

I've only minor experience with Photoshop, and only glanced at the Paintshop Pro web site. Other folks have mentioned their favorite/most-hated image editor so I'll chime in, as I use Paint.NET[^].
Paint.NET is a very competent image editor. I've used it for everything from creating small icons for UI buttons to retouching scanned photographs. The base application provides most of the capability you might need, but there is a healthy plugin community as well for file type, effect, and shape support. Best of all, it's free.

This post brought back memories of my first 'real' computer, a mid-90's powermac 6100 that had some really awesome painting/drawing demos. I haven't seen anything that good since. Paint-3D is pretty good but still a bit primitive.
My colleague has actually been doing a lot of nice design work lately using MS Publisher and PowerPoint.

No, it's a way for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to test pork products for contaminants and improper handling, all without analyzing any actual meat.

An amusing, but also not amusing, writeup: Why Angular Made Me Quit Web Dev – Hacker Noon[^]
Quote: Not a single part of ANGULAR’s design makes your code run faster. It increases only three things: complexity bloat, the time it takes to complete a simple feature, and — if you can somehow avoid driving yourself insane writing this spaghetti day in and day out — job security for you and your team.
Yup, that's certainly my (granted, very limited) experience.

Two years ago the management - out of the blue - decided to write the new version of our portals in Angular...
It is just a messy tool - probably good for a quick-and-dirty, few page long site, but has nothing to do with large scale (enterprise) development...
