I've seen an old list of Adobe alternatives, but do you know of a recent one? I prim use Divinci Resolve over Premiere for video but have less familiarity with others. I find Gimp a bit hard to use. Mostly the controls don't feel natural for some reason.

look up "make GIMP feel like Photoshop" or something similar. iirc it's a quick install that rearranges GIMP to be much more intuitive for people who came up on adobe.

I dunno if this changes any of the UX paradigms, but I heard GIMP is about to release a huge major version.

If you’re using a drawing tablet, Krita is free.

photopea for photoshop, darktable for lightroom, inkskape for illustrator

I’ve switched from Premiere to Kdenlive and I find that it works fantastically. It’s more clunky a bit but the features are all there.

I tried Resolve but couldn't really get on with it, doesn't help that it can't handle H264 & H265 encoded video in the free version... I'm really growing tired of using Vegas Pro 16
