It seems the wealthy elite got sick of the “poors” creating memes and having discussions about their stupidity and horrendous actions and want to go back to us plebs just reading a finely reviewed newspaper with all the correct opinions they want us to have in it and none of this “free thought” nonsense.
I’m an old guy (started with Photoshop 5 – not CS5; 5), and GIMP has never felt like software trying to help me accomplish a goal. It’s the vi of image editors.
You’ll still be able to get consoles and cloud stream. The real problem is that the power to create is being taken away from regular people.
That literally plays into the concept of big business having a monopoly

There’s a reason I’m still rocking CS6. Fuck you for wanting me to pay monthly.
Could just use GIMP at that point.

Gimp is not intuitive at all. Krita or Paint.net are good free alternatives and Affinity photo is great (but not free)
Affinity is free as of a couple weeks ago. And there’s talk of a Linux native version being considered iirc.
Requires a free license, so the old adage about you being the product probably applies.
I’ve tried. SO many times. It’s just so damn clunky. I ended up using Krita (also FOSS) instead.
