    Honestly nah, there are lots of other good options. Support the devs and people fueling real creativity rather than staying in Adobe’s ecosystem, paid or not.

      Unfortunately as someone who uses Adobe programs for work, the FLOSS alternatives are just not there yet :/ (especially considering how seamlessly Adobe programs work together)

        My partner is a graphic designer and although she undeniably had some growing pains switching away from Adobe, she hasn’t looked back.

          Thanks, that’s interesting to hear! Can I ask what sort of graphic design she does?

          My work primarily involves CMYK publications made in InDesign, using graphics made in Illustrator and Photoshop. So inter-operability and compatibility with professional CMYK printing are key for my needs.

            She also worked with Photoshop and Illustrator. She does many things. Freelance design work for people, as well advertising design for her work. She also does design for our website and ttrpg hobbies.

      I use Affinity these days. Although it being purchased by Canva has me very worried.
