    Fuck sake. We get a decent Adobe competitor without AI and subscriptions and it gets immediately enshittified with AI and subscriptions.

        It is free, but you need a Canvas account, and only the ai features are behind their subscription

            I’m just mad because I bought a license given it was a one-time purchase with updates for that version (like the good old days) and the developers weren’t chasing AI integration (even discussed they didn’t want to add generative AI).

            Now I’m not sure I want to trust investing time in the product if they could start doing more Adobe-like behaviors. If only FOSS apps could close the gaps faster.
