    I was taking to my sister, who is an artist, about setting up Linux and warned them about poor Adobe support. Their response was “⭐ 𝒻𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝒶𝒹𝑜𝒷𝑒 ⭐” due to their AI shenanigans and high costs.

    So thanks modern Adobe for making it easier for people to switch to Linux.

    Gimp sucks.

      Gimp used to suck. Gimp 3 is amazing. Krita is great. Inkscape is OK.

      Having all three requires less space than Photoshop and Illustrator and covers about every feature of both.

    I’ve never had any trouble running adobe software on Linux.

    I’ve also never tried, but still the statement is technically correct.

      I’m laughing way too hard at this.

      Honestly this is the best answer.

      Like, use the tools that work for your use case?

      I fucking hate macs but man using a video editor on windows was a pain back in the day. Where I would rather set up a server on Linux, than use whatever the hell windows servers operate.

    The answer is very much “Don’t run Photoshop”

    (Fuck Adobe. There, I said it)

        It’s never unethical to pirate Adobe, but it’s always more ethical to use Free Software instead and deny Adobe the mindshare.

          It’s far more ethical to make the company lose money

          Minimum amount for photoshop is 22$/month

          Pirate photoshop

          Delete it

          Pirate again

          Repeat 30 times

          Adobe looses 660$

          If everyone does this adobe will loose so much

            That’s not at all how piracy works. They don’t lose any money by me not buying their product, the money was never theirs to lose. They can earn money if I buy it, but if I don’t, then nothing changed. It’s not like every company is entitled to my money.

            Pirating or using Gimp or Krita instead, has the exact same effect on them, ie me not buying their product.
