Here's something that often makes me wish I never left Photoshop: being able to use the option key to toggle to the Color Picker Tool. It seems ridiculous that there is no way to toggle to the Color Picker Tool when using any one of the other tools, especially the Flood Fill Tool ("paint bucket"), Brush or Pixel Tools.
When doing detailed photo editing, there is a constant back and forth to sample a color and then apply it with several of the tools. To have to use the mouse and click on the darn thing every time you need it makes for wasting an awful lot of time.

Press and hold the "I" key (Colour Picker Tool shortcut) 

Choose your colour, then release the "I" key

 

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Please note that this is not the “L” key, but the “i” key as in eyedropper.
