- If you're sick of Adobe's goofy terms of service, there's never been a better time to jump ship than right now - Affinity has boosted their free trial to 6 MONTHS!!!
6 month FREE trial of Affinity suite here: affinity.serif...
FREE version of Davinci Resolve here: www.blackmagic...
Have you made the switch? If not, what's holding you back?
Piracy ngl lmao, yeah i use Davinci resolve, but photoshop is just more convenient to pirate lmao
The fact I work in the professional world and we all collaborate on the same projects.
@@MassiveDerek I need to get my project files compatible.

@@djcaptkirk I remember this trap when working as an Audio Engineer - ProTools had the monopoly and it wasn't until I went independent that I was able to use the software i wanted to use
They literally cost me more money than I intended to spend for a short period of use. Hate them now! 😅
Hopefully these free alternatives help you out!
I recommend switching to the studio version of Davinci resolve directly ! 😁
➡Noise reduction
➡Automatic subtitle
And more others !
@@Grapfy yeah but only if I have my 1440p monitor because the UI feels cramped on 1080p
i agree =) if u make money with videos
if not... just for fun... free wversion is enough
DaVinci for the win!
Absolutely! So much for so free!
Outside of the switch, people and I have resorted to pirating Adobe apps because of the following:
1. Living in a third world country where Photoshop was pirated on almost every school and office.
2. Some bigger business would require you to use Photoshop or other apps or else they will reject you for using non-Adobe apps or if they found out you're using a cracked version. This doesn't happen in smaller business but ymmv.
3. Some features and plugins can be Adobe specific. I used After Effects as an example for making visuals and trying to learn node based compositing to copy my workflow is such a chore for timing.
Remember what Gabe Newell said? Piracy is a service problem and not the financial problem.
Are there cracked versions any beyond CS6?
@@ErwinvanHolten I use 2024. >Haxnode.
I got an adobe ad before this 😂
rage against the machine
you late, we already quit 3 years ago.
Congrats on getting out!
I quit using Adobe several years ago but I haven't tried Affinity so I'll give that a go. Thank you!
I've noticed more and more videos on youtube have multiple zooms in to the content creator to put emphasis on a particular point or statement etc. I'm curious if anyone else finds this as irritating and jarring as I do? I'd prefer it didn't happen at all but could live with just happening less. No shade, its a fashionable thing to do and I am anything but fashionable
the problem is if you are a freelancer working for small business or clients, it is fine, use anything you want.
But if you are looking for a job or you get a bigger client/business, they would probably require you to use Illustrator or Photoshop.
And if it has printing related stuff, then Coral.
You cannot be the one choosing what you want to use in that case.
Why not? Just don't accept assigments with these terms. Plenty of work. Edit: Are you like insane having someone else decide what tools you use. Are you a crafsman or not?
@@ErwinvanHoltenProblem is that considering that Photoshop is the industry standard,there probably aren’t many jobs that will let you use alternatives like Affinity.
Don't get it, why do people upload to adobe cloud (or any other cloud) and then complain ?
Your give your neighbor access to your bank account, and then complain "the money is gone" ?
probably because adobe recently started *allegedly* using actual content people generate to train their AI and people had no way to opt out of it. It's a new development that has a lot of people looking for alternatives to leave their prison of a platform
good video. adobe has abused their monopoly for too long. about time there is some good competition.
Thanks for watching!
Never monthly fees.
Lol, I switched to davinci at work and was producing in 3 Days…
Unfortunately Im using adobe for work, but Ive personally bought affinity v2 at a discounted price because I own v1
noice! It's half off right now!
If Blackmagic improves Davinci Resolve and adds:
- keyframe graph editor to edit page
- guides to preview
- ability to apply effects to adjustment layers
Then Davinci will be a no-brainer best pick. For now, the biggest downside of using davinci for me is the lack of presets and effects you can find opposed to premiere.
How true is it that one cannot learn Da Vinci Resolve if he has not used Adobe Premier before? Where to start?
start here - he even includes project files to follow along with czcams.com/video/qDHnCFMZ9HA/video.htmlsi=6XNsV1GgrkiyEXCU
@@MassiveDerek Thsnk you for this. I have downloaded the video and will be working on it shortly.
magix movie maker .... there u start xDDD
@@RvonA will give it a look. Thanks.
affinity is the right backup for all professionals, to work with sensitive contents without the adobe eye to provate contents of your clients. adobe can’t be the only software for professionals for privacy issues. this is bad but is a fact
Ahh I will try to move from FCPX to davinci resolve...Long time I wanted to make the switch...
FCPX is Apple Do you all know what you are talking about or just following the biggest screamer??
There are so many more features in resolve - its banana's. Fusion is insanely powerful as well - so many more rendering options. Good luck to you in making the switch!
There's a learning curve to be sure. But stick with it ... well worth the investment in time for this phenomenal (free) editor. The Studio version is included with the BlackMagic "Speed Editor" keypad/jog wheel hardware for $100 more than just the software; best upgrade value anywhere IMHO.
When adobe started offering the cloud, I look to the seven seas and never looked back. Good thing they never got any of my drawings.
good thing! what do you use instead?
@@MassiveDerek Sounds like they are still using Adobe with GenP or M0nkrus
@@MassiveDerek You missed the joke. 😂😂😂
🏴☠🏴☠🏴☠ Get it?
@@MassiveDerek me joke missed ye, m' lad! Aye, we sail the sev'n seas, take what we find, give nothin' back!
@@elmohead i am not really sure if i am getting you either, but it's funny you mention the 7th sea, as i wonder if piracy beyond CS 6'th is making any sense.
Adobe is like the mob! never again
Much like the mob, Adobe makes it tricky to leave but not impossible 😂
Générative AI is holding me back. I shoot real estate and I often need to erase unwanted details. Any idea ?
Same here, I think dowloading Krita (free drawing/photo editing software that has some generative AI) on top of affinity photo might be a solution, or simply take out the photo to a dedicated ai website (like leonardo for exemple) specifically for the ai tools and then put it back on ps later might be a solution even tho this workflow is more tedious
Stable Diffusion is free and OpenSource.
I'll see if I can afdress this in a new quick tip for Affinity Photo !
@@MassiveDerek Where the message I wrote ?
Another possibility is Krita with comfy UI. I was experimenting with this making composites and was very surprised at how easy it was to change one element, replace something in the shot or get rid of another element. And that's a free option, using the comfy ui plugin for Krita. Just something to think about.
As I close my eyes and imagine those who have quit Adobe over ten years ago, I can hear their hysterical laughter at all the people who never quit the Adobe cult who also have membership in the Apple cult but now the KoolAid has run out and they don't know what to do. This is so funny.
I can't quit you
@@FairGameNY miss you too 😘
Why do all want to switch from Adobe? Yes, i have heard of things like AI training and bills. I have no problems with Adobe. It works like i should. I do have Blackmagic Design DaVinci Studio too and Gimp. Some videos is taken care of in DaVinci and others in Premiere Pro. The thumbnails is a Photoshop job. I´ll keep my Adobe Account. Next...
1. Cost savings, *_extreme cost savings._* 2. Ownership vs. Rental: With Adobe, you stop paying, you stop working. With Affinity (and DaVinci) what you have today (free or one-time payment) works on today's hardware, forever. If you're OK paying monthly RENTAL forever to edit your own files ... well, that's your call.
“You will own nothing and be happy” it seems they also mean your own work when uploaded to their cloud
You are the problem
Paranoia ... the latest fad.
I’m old enough to remember parts of the Cold War. Paranoia is nothing new
@MassiveDerek I'm the same age. I'm just not a chicken little easily influenced by social media spread hearsay based on bullshit. LOL.
@@VeganSausages1I’m happy for you. I hope this video and my channel brought some joy and knowledge into your life
