@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social @noondlyt Don’t forget Serif / Affinity! Left Adobe for them a decade ago, first class tools 👏🏽

Y'all dont block all the .exe files with your firewall? I been doing that for years. I anticipate being stuck with the near current version of Photoshop I have now. An update never occurs, but thats okay. Ive got windows update disconfigured and blocked, too.

Ive found that originally, updates actually fixed problems, but it seems for the last few years, updates only benefit the company and not the user. They are either trying to reinvent the wheel, increase data mining, restricting access in the name of better services, to gear up towards changing to some bullshit form of a subscription service (again, to provide you better services! Better for them...)

And, sometimes, updates just straight up break things. I've soured to allowing any updates when things are already working smoothly.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Adobe should make no mistake. We have the creative power here.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Thanks for this post. It's super helpful! Do you have any suggestions for replacing substance painter? I've been getting by fine with blender and krita. Your kdenlive suggestion was a godsend! 🤩

In all fairness, Adobe has posted a clarification: https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/07/adobe-terms-clarified/
Do what thou wilst with it.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social where's the love for xfig?

@kde @kde I wish gimp had been updated at all in the past 10 years

They keep teasing that major update but nothing yet.

[–] NaoPb@eviltoast.org 0 points 5 months ago

Gimp might be allright but I prefer pixlr (an online app) as an alternative to photoshop.

[–] greenman@fosstodon.org -1 points 5 months ago (13 children)

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social If only you were right, but be serious the quality of Adobe softwares is 300 % better than any soft you cite.

Gimp is not ready and the best alternative is the Windows only intensionally Linux incompatible Affinity Photo.
