How is it that adobe still basically has no real competition sure there's alternatives to photoshop, illustrator, premiere pro but from what I've seen none of them really measure up to adobe so what is it that the alternatives aren't doing that would at least put them closer to even playing fields?

Clutterware. Adobe Illustrator seemed over-complicated and had a cancelation fee as well

Gimp just released Gimp 3.0.6

- This feature introduces a new toggle in the Brushes and Fonts dialogs to allow brush and font previews to optionally follow the color theme, an alpha channel for certain transforms and on filter merge, and improves Photoshop brush support.

- Gimp now shows an undo step for Lock Content, resizes images to layers irrespective of selections, fixes Alpha to Selection on single layers with no transparency, and fills the mask with complete opacity instead of a completely transparent layer when creating a layer mask from the layer’s alpha and the layer has no alpha.

- The Text tool has been updated

- The Foreground Selection tool no longer creates a selection when no strokes are made.

- GIMP 3.0.6 improves importing of JPEG 2000, TIFF, DDS, SVG, PSP, ICNS, DICOM, WBMP, Farbfeld, XWD, and ILBM image formats, as well as exporting of the FITS image format.

- This release improves the sensitivity of filter actions to make sure they are set insensitive when relevant, especially for filters that can’t be run non-destructively

- More filters can now support acceleration using the GPU.

This is the third update in less than a year.

The next update will be HUGE. It will be released before february 2026.

Gimp 3.2 is about to violently punch Adobe in the face.

When I took a year of graphic design classes Inkscape was mentioned.
I think adobe being considered "the industry standard" is why it has no competition.
