    Circular selection, fill?

    Or, for an annulus: circular selection, border, enter border width, fill.

    Or, for any selection in general: edit, stroke selection.

      Isn’t that how you do that in Photoshop?

      For a certified maniac there’s also one bump of a brush with 100% hardness and using gradient tool, radial, with no actual gradations.

      And if you are feeling like killing a school bus of puppies, you can put a coin or a mug to the screen with one hand while drawing around it with the other, using a live mouse, biting you, as you move it and hallucinate the formation of the ideal circular form.

        No idea about Photoshop, never got to use it. The last piece of bitmap graphic editing software I used other than Gimp was Micrografx Picture Publisher 4/5, and that has been a while.

        I’ll admit I do see some quality of life features in Photoshop though, plus I’d like to play around with some of the “AI” feature for infilling etc.

        That being said, from what I gather from OP, there seems to be a circular shape tool that saves 2-3 clicks when drawing a circle in PS? Looking at the pros/cons, not a convincing argument, but then again, I don’t look at memes for any meaningful argument or a reasonable discussion.

          I wasn’t writing this comment seriosly, but there’s also a shape tool, but it’s rather weird and sits at the bottom of the toolbar so I don’t feel like many professional users really care about it.
