>xhe's STILL stuck on Windows "solely due to Adobe"
>>108850746>Natron, Blender or ButtleOFX as an alternative to After EffectsIt's cute when you're trying to find the alternative, but come on.
>>108850787What's wrong with Natron?
>Gimp, LibreofficeALERT, this person is unemployed and xe does not use any software for anything productive ever, do not interact with this thread
>>108850746>Kdenlive, Audacity, LMMSHaha, no thanks
>>108850746>Illustrator>Scribus Laidout Inkscape
>>108850794I'll start with the ButtleOFX - it's been dead for 13 years or so. The entire chart is full of abandonware. Natron is also an abandonware and it's not even an alternative to After Effects. It's just a compositing editor.Davinci Resolve is a better alternative to After Effects, but it's not open source.
>>108850853I don't really care if something is abandonware; it's not like movies weren't made with After Effects 20 years ago. I just care if it gets the job done, and Natron seems like a fine compositor.
I got an old ass cracked copy of photoshop cs5 and a wine prefix for it, I aint using furry goon mascot krita or some homos bell pepper sprayer
>>108850898>I just care if it gets the job doneThat's the neat thing. It doesn't.
>>108851281Fair enough.
>>108850794natron is breddy gud but the project more or less was abandoned
>>108850746No alternatives for>ProTools>Sibelius>Maestro>Houdini>Arnold>RenderMan>V-Ray>Nuke>Toon Boom Harmony
>>108850746None of those can fully replace Photoshop and you know it
>3+ shitty alternatives instead of one good oneOpen source is a joke
enjoy either getting hacked by cracks or paying out the ass for licensing if you ever try to sell or profit something with adobe slop (yes even using their "free student/teacher" license and be prepared to have to re-register anually to keep that "free" all while they spy on you to "make it a better product"
>>108851531>muh hackersYou already willingly send nearly all useful information to various companies and government agencies.
>>108850746>Blender>alternative to AEWhy are FOSS retards almost always techlets?
>>108851346All of those sound made up.
>>108850746You don't use any of this
>>108851847Literally just google them followed by "software". ProTools has been the industry audio creation & production standard for decades.
>>108851962I wasn't calling you out, it was just an observation.
>>108850746You can tell the tranny that made that image hasn't used any of the software they claim to replace or they shill
>>108851346Sibelius is dead nigga everyone now uses dorico or lilypond
>>108850746>GIMP being treated as a serious alternative for Photoshop>SumatraPDF not shown even though the chart doesn't say "for Linux" so a Windows only FOSS alternative could be shown>if you go to the guy's webpage you can see he abuses GenAI for his trash and demands money for itLinuxfags not sending their best, as usual.
>AE alternative>blender
>nuuu I need this software full of features 90% of which I never used
>>108850746Where's Affinity?
>>108850746https://github.com/sander110419/lightroom-cc-on-linux
>xhe'shuh?
>>108850746GIMP is assPhotopea beats GIMP any day
>>108852805professionals should be using blender, nuke and resolve anywayswho the fuck is still stuck on AE in 2026?may god have mercy on your soul
>>108853252Incorrect
>>108850746>buttholeFXhehehehehe
>>108853323Does GIMP support non-destructive text layer effects yet?How about layer border snapping?
>>108850746They're all dogshit
>>108853396Ask the developer, if it doesn't just fork it
>>108853525you said that these statements >>108853252 were incorrectupon probing you are telling me that you don't actually have a clue and to fork it and implement it myself
>>108853548Enjoy the flexibility of open source software kid
>>108850746I’m stuck on windows because JR East Train Sim does not properly work on Linux (yet)
>>108853252Wrong
>>108853695I enjoy the flexibility of paying someone to "just write the feature you need bro" ie i pay for actual software, not meme tranny projects.
>>108853826So you're saying that you are incompetent and lack programming skills, weird flex kid
>>108853396inb4 the faggot shilling GEGL shows up with some incomprehensibly ugly screenshot that claims to show this
>>108850746>Alternatives for animate>None of them are good
>>108850746they can cry about it
>>108850801so it seems.
For me it's>AutoCAD>Revit>Civil3DCan't live without 'em.
>>108850746How let's see how many of those "open source" programs works as good as the original.
What about pcb design? Is kicad good(enough)?
>>108850746>xhe's STILL stuck on Windows "solely due to Adobe"I can leave Windows and still keep my pro apps.
>>108850746I knew this was bait the moment I saw GIMP
>>108850746GIMP has a long way to go before it can actually become a professional alternative to Photoshop.
>>108854324photo of your ID and your two kidneys please
>>108850746Scribus is an alternative to InDesign, not Illustrator.
>>108854330Sounds like a skill issue Works on my machine
>>108854598If you try to edit text you rotated in GIMP, it un-rotates your text. It cannot keep the rotation. Photoshop doesn't have that problem and I'm shocked not only that such a problem even exists, but it still hasn't been fixed in 2026.
>>108854612Sounds like a skill issueWorks on my machine
>>108850746>Stuck on adobe because of windowsOwari da
>>108854598draw a circleall fields
>>108854724Drawing a circle is one thing, being able to easily edit it after you've created it is another. Adjusting the stroke size, changing the stroke between solid and dashed, disabling the fill and making it stroke-only, modifying the gradients, etc.
>>108854724Sounds like a skill issueWorks on my machine
>>108854790Sounds like a skill issueWorks on my machine
>>108854800>Works on my machineThen show it working on your machine.
>>108854804Why?
i went back to windows to escape the flood of normalfags coming to linux. i do miss gamescope sometimes THO. gamescope is based.
>>108854612Wait are you telling me that if I have to edit the text I rotated in gimp that I will have to re-rotate it afterwards? There goes my saturday
>>108854612Yeah I'll admit I've never even tried Photoshop before because I've been using GIMP my entire life, and even I find this a pain point.
If you're a hobbyist use whatever you want. If you want to work and get paid you use what the industry uses, even if you don't like it.I don't think anyone actually enjoys using Adobe programs, we just get used to it.
>>108850746>GIMP is not as good as Photoshop >LibreOffice is not as good as Microsoft Office>Wine doesn't fix every app Linux doesn't natively supportNo anon, regular people are not learning inferior alternatives of enterprise software to make the switch to switch to an already less convenient OS ecosystem.
>>108856149Fuck I said the same thing twice
>>108853252Absolutely, the only real downside Photopea has is resource bottlenecks due to it being a browser app. Otherwise it's the only viable Photoshop alternative (considering GIMP can't even go head to head with PS CS6)
>>108850746Why are troons so obsessed with moving users off linux? Would you like to be detransitioned?
>>108856190*off windows / to linux
>>108856222I know the concept is obscure to you, but if you ‘go professional,’ you also start making money of your own. Also you should be donating money or time to FOSS, otherwise you’re just a worthless leech.
>>108856266>Doesn’t even understand the definition of freenu/g/ everyone.
>>108856278>F-Free as in freedom!!That means I have the freedom to not give FOSS devs any of my money. Not until they all learn how to make UI/UX that can be used by actual human beings.
>>108856287Leech.>>108856286Retard.
>>108850746Shotcut is incredibly based.https://litter.catbox.moe/osdwbbj6e8o4pij1.mp4https://litter.catbox.moe/i5b1x580tn7pt25d.mp4
>>108856337A lot of words to justify being greedy. You're using those powerful linux tools to make money, right? Now it's time to give back.
>>108850746I’m sure you buy store brand groceries and can’t tell the difference too.
>>108850746>OliveI genuinely love using that little guy, but c'mon. It's been beta abandonware for 3 years now
>>108851346>SibeliusHasn't been relevant since Obama
>>108856149Normalfags don't use native office apps at all anymore. They use browser shit. Google sheets and office365.
>>108857334People use whatever they're told to use, in most offices you have zero control, you can't even delete shortcuts from the desktop let alone install and run your own software.
>>108854612I'm surprised by this, because you can edit rotated text in Krita and that's a digital paining software not an editor lol
>>108850746My heart is awaiting the day Canva makes the right choice for Affinity.https://techcentral.co.za/affinity-for-linux-canvas-next-big-move-could-reshape-the-desktop-software-market/274861/
>>108850746>>108850801I've actually used Only Office for some PDFs I needed to editRussians did a great job making their software WORK
>>108855869I've seen artfags go back to pirating Photoshop after trying other software and going "Photoshop is one of THE BEST feeling pieces of software ever designed, its like going back to your childhood home and eating a homecooked meal" (actual quote)So yes, there are such people.
>>108856357why is all linux software so incomprehensibly ugly?like, this is an area where the bar is low, but even fucking AVID looks better than this shit, and its ugly as fuck
>>108854149Had it running, but one day it just stopped working and every attempt since then has resulted in the same white or black screen on startup.Pretty sad.>>108854612>bro, just like, implement it yourself with the python scripting api
>>108850746are all the adobe things even top dogs in their the respective fields? the only ones i've actually heard people talk about acrobat (and even then mostly the reading part, not the editing), photoshop, premier, so the rest must be more niche "graphic designer with a macbook" stuff
