    Not sure what Adobe products you’re using, or in what application, but I do photography as a hobby and do my editing on my linux machines. Rawtherapee and DarkTable are good alternatives to lightroom, with Gimp being a very good alternative to Photoshop. Gimp is getting better all the time, but Darktable already is a stronger editor than Lightroom.

    Haven’t tried any video editing alternatives (not my thing), but these programs have the added benefit of being free.

      GIMP is still hot garbage imo, you can do a lot with it but it has a looong way to go before being comparable to Photoshop. It was only last year in 2022 they added CMYK support, that’s insane to me.

      I’m not saying it won’t get to the feature rich state I’m looking for, but it’s got a long way to go. I’m not going to be able to switch from Photoshop for a while. If I did, Affinity is a better program for that but even that is missing a lot of features in comparison. Only for now though, I’m looking forward to the future of these programs.

        GIMP still doesn’t have non-destructive editing; I can’t imagine doing any serious image work with it. If FOSS wants a Photoshop alternative, then devs need to add more image manipulation stuff to Krita.
