corporation yet again proving that if you want to be free to use your own things that you paid for on your own computer you can never trust anything that requires an internet connection to not trample all over your rights
love it very cool really vibing with the current state of software and the internet
I bought affinity because I’m tired of subscriptions so… hopefully they don’t do that too.
I’m convinced Adobe’s acquisition activity is driven primarily by elimination of alternatives to the SaaS subscription model, as opposed to revenue growth. Adobe is okay with viable competition, but they are not okay with viable competition that offers an alternate payment and delivery model that doesn’t view the customer as an open wallet. That’s when the polonium tea comes out, because letting that run spells industry exodus.
It makes me wonder what the US DOJ/FTC/relevant regulator thinks. Perhaps they don’t care at all because (unlike Adobe’s userbase) we realize this sector is as un-vital as it gets. The Stockholm syndrome on display is sad nevertheless.
they’ll be bought as well, just wait… 😮💨
Don’t worry, they were already bought by Canva. It’s just early and we’re waiting to see if/what that changes.
Oh dang it, totally forgot about that
A friendly reminder that GIMP and Da Vinci Resolve are things that exist.
Oh boy. I’m fully convinced that people who recommend GIMP don’t actually use the thing. It’s a train wreck and it’s had almost 30 years to be better.
I use it all the time. It works fine.
