Idk, I'm stuck with a portable version of CS6 which miraculously works on Linux. That said, I still don't use it, I have no need for it

That is the most piracy thing I've ever heard. I have TONS of programs that I don't use or have use for, but I do have them!

Yeah Pirating stuff is a hobby, lmao. It's fun to download all the free shit you can

If you are not a heavy user, then https://photopea.com is a great free alternative

I think the goal isn't actually selling you Photoshop, they care but not much.

The goal is stopping a photographer or other professional in the middle of their very busy workflow, when they absolutely can't be interrupted, to make sure they get so annoyed they just pay to make it never happen again.

Did you give Gimp a try? After initial struggles to adapt I don't miss anything.

Still using the adobe suite version I pirated in 2014. Should probably look for a newer one, it's been almost 10 years

If you get tired of that, you can get Photoshop + Lightroom for about $2/month if you're "in" Turkey. That will also get you access to the generative AI features.

Is it only a matter of signing up via VPN or is there more to it?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

you could use GIMP, or even PhotoGIMP if you're too used to photoshop's behaviour and keybindings

What version do you use ? I left out after CS6 and the subscription move. Is the latest version easily cracked?

It is very easy. Use the monkarus version for hassle free download and install OR the GenP version for a slightly more complicated install but the install is directly from Creative Cloud official. Edit: https://w14.monkrus.ws/ -- use this link for the monkarus version. The site is in Russian but has a US flag/UK flag on the right bar to translate the site
