Fuck Adobe... Try Luminar - GoFuckYourself.com

Ferus · 05-03-2020, 05:56 AM

Was finally able to find something that replaces my Photoshop - went with https://skylum.com/luminar last month, and have saved so much time editing our travel photos, and could finally uninstall everything with Adobe on it.

Might not work for all the pro's here, but for anyone doing their own blogs or daily photo-editing, this is something you should look into.

I've still not found anything that can replace Adobe Acrobat... Something so simple no one else can seem to get right..

My link was not an affiliate link. I'm just a happy customer. I dont care about price, I just want stuff that works, and while Gimp can be great, but its not as productive.

I am still using an old version of Photoshop.... LOL.

What doesn't work in adobe? The only thing I hate about Adobe is the fact they force me to pay $600 a year to use their products.

What doesn't work for you in Adobe? The only thing I hate about Adobe is the fact they force me to pay $600 a year to use their products.

Looks good but cannot get it to run and just restarts my machine almost instantly.
It seems many others are having the same restarting or crashing issues too.

If you need photoshop only there's a package for only photoshop for photographers for like 9 euro a month or something

Dident say adobe dident work. I said I dont mind paying for software as long as it works and increase productivity. Those are two separate things.

What I dislike about adobe is their licensemodel and the EULA gives them the right to demand you upgrade or uninstall the software. I just want to buy the software and use it without their subscription.
