I hate that there is not a good alternative to InDesign that works on linux.

If only the Affinity suit were to work on linux, even just with wine, I would be alright with the fact that it still is proprietary software. It was somehow able to replace my whole Ph/Ai/Id workflow but it is till keeping me from trying to switch to the penguin.

I've never used Photoshop but I have used Photopea and people tell me it's exactly the same: https://www.photopea.com/

I like it too, but it's like comparing a convenience store around the corner with the big box supermarket across town. Many similarities but it's much more limited. Do think it deserves more attention though, it works really well if you ask me.

I have no clue what most of these abbreviations refer to 😅

I have no idea what any of those things really does and it's way too much to learn given how much GIMP and Krita do

So happy to see my beloved Paint Tool Sai on here! 😃 Really good list. Didn't know there were so many alternatives

Maybe it’s to only spy on Sony. They love pirating Adobe products; and hate when others pirate their stuff.

Are there any good alternatives as far as PDF creation goes? Creating fillable forms, not just editing? I have some users I can’t shake from Acrobat Pro.
