Because I'm used to it I guess, and I haven't found a single app that handles pixels and transparency well.

Like zoom in like crazy, update 1 pixel, save, transparency is still there.

Haven't looked for a bunch of years though, maybe it's time to try again :-)

Krita's always done transparency just fine for me. It's pretty good these days. There's also a built in option to set your keyboard shortcuts to the same ones that Photoshop uses.

Well then I'll have to re-check it out :-)

Yeah, I try never to underestimate the value of sheer familiarity. New software is like breaking in a new pair of leather shoes, sometimes you have to bleed a little before your feet adapt and you adjust it to fit.

Or a whole lot if you go the Blender route...

I guess it's like smoking.

You know it's bad for you, and it costs a lot, but it's a hassle to drop, so you just keep smoking anyway.
