Open source, community made plugins/addons, animation support, available for free on their website, I paid for it here because I wanted to, great intuitive hotkeys, it even has layer effects (which is something that apparently Clip Studio doesn't have yet), I work with this in parallel for texturing models in blender. It is a great tool, I find it is sluggish/slow when rendering, specially when moving layers that have effects applied, the image starts to tear down until you apply the transform; maybe this is becuase I still have no dedicated gpu? (using a Ryzen 5 5600g rn, I don't think there should be an issue with graphics tbh)
Overall, great software specially if you can't afford like $50 just to enjoy drawing digitally.

Yes there are many things that can be improved specifically when it comes to rendering. Hopefully this is already seen as the blender of illustration, meaning that just like Blender, it can and will improve over time.
Would love to see UI/UX improvements, either functionally or to make it greater visually, sometimes I get lost on the UI (because I'm dumb) but also because I don't like how KDE apps generally look, feels like an outdated application (thanks to the damn standarized web frameworks, now my brain is completely broken and I totally dig it)

Those are my thoughts overall, might add more later? Maybe. I choose this rather than anything else because it works great on linux as well, one single software I can trust for any system I choose to use, no need to worry about photoshop or CSP not being available for linux.
