I’d rather it be really ugly but I’ll take whatever gets us there.
Yeah fucking tank adobe you piece of shit
Why did Adobe start tanking after the start of the year?
Proposed 39% tariff on each adobe plugin that’s imported.
Ahahah oh my god, they're lucky they're industry standard...
Here is a list of foss Adobe related stuff:
-
Kdenlive
-
Gimp
-
Krita
-
Okular or SummatraPDF
One posted by someone recently
I think it is better to focus on foss when you can. This is more of a list of alternative companies to Adobe.
Cool graphic though

Kdenlive
Blender has a really good video editor built in.
Blender can do video editing but I wouldn't recommend using Blender unless you are already using other Blender features.
Kdenlive is a proper video editor and is actually designed for purely video editing. Just because you can do it with Blender doesn't mean you should.

By chance, any idea how either of them compare to Final Cut Pro for basic video cleanup?
I use FCP for cleaning up instructional YT videos (cutting out flubs and flowing back together) but have been looking for a viable Linux alternative.
Both would be fine options tbh. I personally find the blender one to be functional but a bit clunky since it's clearly not the main focus though so it's probably the lesser of the two options if that's all you're doing

The (attempted) Figma acquisition announcement promptly led to emerge FOSS alternative of collaborative prototyping tool too.
Also I want to mention Graphite.rs for graphic design. It aims for vector/raster image with procedural customization capability and in early development. Last I checked they don't do much outreach and having feedback helps too.
Anything using peer2panda?
I know the gnome project was making a p2p collaborative editor at one point.

Am I missing something? What does Blender have that overlaps with an Adobe product?
What does Blender have that overlaps with an Adobe product
I ditched premiere for the Video editor in Bender, and you can use Blender in a lot of ways just like After Effects, if you really know it, then its a lot more powerful than AE.
I think it did back when Adobe was actually relevant in animation
Now days all the big studios have there own custom stuff and the community uses Blender
My guess is that Canva and Figma are 90% of the reason why people are no longer confident in Adobe as a company.
Canva and Figma are 90% of the reason
How long before Adobe buys them... they did it macromedia and all their other competitors. Anti-trust laws, if they were working, would have shut down Abobe decades ago.

Idk, i work at a print shop and half of my work day is spent fixing dog shit files people send me from Canva. It's the scourge of pretty much every printer out there.
That used to be my trade. What's wrong with Canva files?
Nothing is vectored, everything is outlines and masks on masks on masks. So when someone sends me a letter sized document without the bleed (becase it never has bleed), i have 2 dozen groups i have to sift through to try and add bleed as best i can. Nothing is print ready, even from "professionals" sending me their ad copy. Canva is designed aroind web, so when amateurs use it for printing, it compounds all the problems, and Canvas instructions for designing for print are next to useless, even if the customer somehow managed to read them.

Just because people have the tools to do graphic design, does not make them good at graphic design.

Figma-balls xD gottem
(I have no idea what these are plz explain)
Figma is a vector drawing app that was originally for UX design (an Adobe XD competitor), but they just added a bunch of graphic design tools that compete with Adobe Illustrator.
Canva does a lot of raster and vector image editing that originally targeted people that were not design pros, but they’ve been adding a lot of features that allow people to make some professional quality stuff stuff with ease.
All in all, both companies are growing into the spaces Adobe dominated. If you were a UX designer who needed to occasionally use Illustrator for a more detailed illustration, maybe you no longer need that Adobe CS license.

Figma is a prototyping app to make semi interactive demos of user interfaces.
What's good about it, is that it is really easy to export the desings to be used by a mobile developer - you drop the part where you build an interface out of pictures, it is the interface from the start.
But there are just so many good reasons!
Still too high!
