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 honestly don’t understand the hate for Adobe.
Is it the subscription model? Ya… business is business. Please suggest a better model that funds software development consistently. I hated it initially, but like not having to buy and install updates all the time.
Is it the performance of the tool? Usability? These are both great to me…
I mean you get what you pay for, more or less. There are other good tools out there, but nothing that is way better all-around that I’ve seen.
I remember editing softwares like LR and PS and others being well over $1000 before the subscriptions came out. I’m personally more than happy to pay the monthly fee for the full use of the Adobe suite and they constantly push out updates that you used to have to wait 3-4 years to get.
Same here. Professionally I have been (and still am) an Adobe suite user for 20+ years and an MS Office user for 30+.
I can't remember for how long I had to stick with the same feature set whilst reading of how fantastic and time saving were some newer tools that I could not afford, because at best I could upgrade once every 5-7 years.
Most of the reasons I am sticking with both suites of software are identical, and none of them is being a fan of either these companies.
