Not my meme, I stole it from someone else. You wouldn’t know them, they go to a different community.

But in order to pirate their programs and not get bothered by “illegal software” popups, I need to block outbound access from their exe’s… so they’re actually not getting my datas
It’s just smart to do this for any pirated software.
Sending them crash reports from Linux could’ve been a pro move though.
If only it were so easy. Nearly every large company you do business with uses Adobe for their marketing stack. Adobe likely has your data in their CDP, whether you use Adobe products or not.
To any artists out there wondering what else they could use. These are some pretty decent alternatives.
Check these foss tools out:
Don’t forget darktable as a lightroom alternative
Darktable is way to hard for me to use.
Just switched to krita recently for drawing and it’s so great, the setup is pretty much like photoshop, with all the tool i ever needed.
I don’t even know why i bothered using photoshop to begin with.
And yeah blender is the OG of 3D.
Does Krita have actions, macros, scripting, or perhaps batch commands?
I never used that, depend on what you want to do but i don’t think there is a good builded in way…
So i guess you can look for some other macro tools or using a python script.
I’ll check it out, but I’m also learning Python scripting in GIMP, and I found a really nice batch plugin called BIMP that can do things like crop, resize, and much more on many files at once.
Although I hear the python-fu thing is going away in version 3.0, and instead you’re just supposed to use a code library in a standalone Python script. The python-fu thing is handy because it adds new menu items for the scripts you make for easy access.
Interesting, maybe it will be worth looking into for myself too, because right now i’m only using the macro’s menu of my huiton pen, and it’s limited to keyboard shortcuts.
And I just checked it, you can have scripts in krita too. So i guess if your learning python scripting you may want to try krita’s api, I’m gonna have a peek too when I get the chance.
Kdenlive is miles more capable than OpenShot Also Kubuntu? That’s a OS? Works if you’re trying to replace windows but don’t think any artist would replace it as a “alternative tool”
The one and only time I tried to use kdenlive, it blackscreened my PC and when I booted back up, my Linux Mint showed in the boot menu as just Ubuntu. I went right back to Openshot.
I… How the fuck-
Dunno, all I was doing was trying to crop the black bars off a 1 minute video clip.
Fwiw, I’ve tried to use OpenShot and it sucked hard. Granted, this was on Windows and it was several years ago (3~4yrs), so it may have gotten better (or it might be way better on Linux), but I ended up switching to davinci resolve because OpenShot literally couldn’t deal with anything above 720p without crashing. I couldn’t complete any university assignments with it. Even just clipping the ends of a video was causing it to crash. Unless OpenShot has gotten significantly better on windows, that’s a good example of a place where a pro-quality FOSS alternative doesn’t really exist.
Kdenlive is a thing. Honestly though using DaVinci is fine, it’s even Linux native.
Oh that’s interesting. I wonder if its any better now for you if you’re interested in trying. It could have been a codec + windows issue at play too.
There’s a few other alternatives for that tool but I can’t think of their names atm.
Kdenlive perhaps?
Or… How about using a different program instead of Adobe’s so that we van eventually change what the “industry standard” is?
You have a weird sense of humor
The problem is having one singular “industry standard” in the first place. If Adobe is eventually dislodged for something else it would eventually become just as bad, because there would still be no meaningful competition to keep it in line.
Affinity is catching up every year, but they still have a ways to go to become an industry standard. I’m rooting for them every step of the way, though.
There is nothing as good and as easy to use as lightroom and photoshop
I’d argue that there is, but we are just too used to the Lightroom or Photoshop way of thinking/workflow. We don’t entertain other programs because it is difficult to learn a new way of doing things and return to a place of competency. And the less people use a piece of software, the less there will be documentation to help others learn.
I’m not sure if its a conspiracy theory or verified, but I do think that Adobe were okay with people (amateurs) pirating their software. We didn’t have the money to pay for it anyway, but it got us to become proficient at using Photoshop so that when we eventually had money, we were locked in.
I personally stopped using them when you could no longer just buy and own them. Now I just don’t edit my photos much which sucks.
Same here, CS6 PS+LR was the last one I bought.
I would very gladly pay to own them again but I will never pay a subscription for them.
Joke’s on you, I still use Paint Shop Pro 7.
Yes, but actually no let’s fuck them anyway :3
Data is already plural (singular is datum), no need to add an s
Filthy little datases
They stole it from us!
Gangly Gimli said that or something, in Lord of the Jing
Besides…
True, but I didn’t make this meme. I borrowed it from elsewhere. Possibly the meme maker is not a native English speaker and knows it as a second language.
Use your silly pirated adobe softwares to fix it
Minimum amount for photoshop is 22$/month
Pirate photoshop
Delete it
Pirate again
Repeat 30 times
Adobe looses 660$
If everyone does this adobe will loose so much
It’s a hate-hate relationship.
It’s only fair 🤷♂️
Harvey Dent:
Me too, Harvey. Me too.
FireWall?
Setup x2 rules for each .exe,
one to block inbound connections,
and another to block outbound connections.Does anyone have a dumbed down tutorial for an internet noob who just uses transmission to torrent and just wants adobe acrobat (just acrobat, for the other things I have other programs, but I really need acrobat and it has to be acrobat)
I don’t know if linking to websites are legal here or not, so I’ll describe it in a roundabout way.
Take the number ‘leet’, and an X. That is the domain name. to is the tld.
In short, [leet (as a number) x] [dot] [to].
Hope it makes sense. That website should have have the droids you are looking for. Just be cautious.
I do have a VPN. Thanks, I’ll give it a try
If you still haven’t found it, DM me.
All my software is registered to Emanuel Goldstein of the PLoA ( Phone Losers of America ).
I hope his identity is safe.
Fair
pictures you can hear
Haha, this relationship goes back to my Amiga 500 years
It is rough for creatives locked down by Adobe’s software since not many alternatives can do what they need it for.
not many alternatives
means, you could still find some. 👍
Yucky all around, any way you look at it.
