Apologies for being the bearer of bad news. "6 hours ago" means roughly 6-7pm Eastern on April 30, 2025. I have no further information; I only know because I was going to visit the wiki and . . . apparently now I'm not.
It's under "Guides & Search Engines" in the Software section of the megathread, should anyone with rights care to update.
Imagine using Adobe. Being bled dry.
I use a really good, free alternative to photoshop and indesign.
They're called pirated photoshop and pirated indesign.
Photopea! Browser based and almost as good.
Though I am not a professional.
I think you mean photopea
Oh right.
Using it at all, even pirated, means becoming contaminated on some level with Adobe paradigms and makes more people more likely to eventually hand Adobe more money because "it's what I'm used to".
At least pirate something that isn't so disgusting, like Affinity, if you simply must use corpo software.
Or, you know, "stay hungry" and keep learning new UI & methods to achieve your target results. Not everyone's a spoonfed moron, but I do agree with your pointing out that Adobe is merely following suit in the age-old "first time's free" routine.
For reasons that should be crystal clear at this point to anyone with half a brain, Crapple "gave" millions of their candy-colored shitboxes to schools around the country throughout the 90s, and look at 'em now. 🤮
Don't shame the consumer, fellow citizen. You're just as much profit fodder as the rest of us.
Yeah, every time I use a program for free, it really makes me think “man, if only I could shell out over $100 a year for this”. Such a problem I have.
