? people take literal classes to learn Photoshop. I took a course at a rec center in high school in the 2000s and it had a bunch of adults learning it for work.


In the early 2000s, people were taking classes to learn how to use Word. Now even grandma uses Word without thinking about it.

We're talking about 2026. GIMP had an excuse for its UI back in 1999. It doesn't anymore.


Word is both simpler and more widespread. Also you'd be surprised. My boomer parents are not Word wizards lol.

PS isn't that much simpler or more intuitive now than back then. It's an inherently more complicated tool.
