    Lol paying for Adobe? Yeah right. You can easily patch the Cloud trials to be the full versions of the programs for free. Why use off brand versions of stuff when I can just pirate/crack the the used programs for free

      Why use […] when I can just pirate/crack

      Aside from the ethical reasons to choose free software over something built with lock-in in mind by a US-based, publicly-traded megacorporation… Sounds like you have never used Krita or darktable. These are best-in-class applications used by professionals. You also have been bitten into their propaganda that you need Adobe. Schools could even train on cheaper, decent software like Affinity (tho it’s not supported by Linux), but Adobe is funding indoctrination just like Microsoft does with Windows/Office/GitHub.
