A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I'm a hobbyist, the Lightroom and Photoshop subscription has well been worth if to me. People here always go on about how their copy of cs6 will never expire, while I smile and nod with my gpu-accelerated, ai-enhanced super tool that does in minutes for a hundred photos what takes them hours in Photoshop.
I'm thinking about giving the subscription model a go. I've been using CS5 for years. I reckon the features they've added since I last purchased it could save me a lot of time in the long run.
This is probably the biggest seller for me.
Very well, you have convinced me sir. I shall try the subscription
Very cool. Can't hurt to give it a whirl, I think you can save a bit if you commit to a whole year at a time, I don't quite recall though.
I agree. Between 2010-2020 things didn't change nearly as much as adobe has in only the past 3 years. These days if with AI things change fast and you're missing out if you're not updating somewhat regularly. Can you still get the same result with 2018 software? Sure, but it's going require more time and effort than if you use the newest versions.
Subscription model can be annoying, and especially so when it was new. But these days it has a lot of upsides and I prefer it.
