      I have a licenced copy of Photoshop (work pays) and I still frequently use PhotoPea. It’s just faster for quick jobs.

    I think the goal isn’t actually selling you Photoshop, they care but not much.

    The goal is stopping a photographer or other professional in the middle of their very busy workflow, when they absolutely can’t be interrupted, to make sure they get so annoyed they just pay to make it never happen again.

    Still using the adobe suite version I pirated in 2014. Should probably look for a newer one, it’s been almost 10 years

      I don’t know, I upgraded and I very much miss my old version. Don’t really use any of the newer features

    Did you give Gimp a try? After initial struggles to adapt I don’t miss anything.

    If you get tired of that, you can get Photoshop + Lightroom for about $2/month if you’re “in” Turkey. That will also get you access to the generative AI features.

    Unless I’m missing something, the only reason Adobe even could disable your pirated Photoshop is if you haven’t blocked the application from accessing the internet in your firewall. C’mon, that’s basic stuff. =)

    What version do you use ? I left out after CS6 and the subscription move. Is the latest version easily cracked?

      It is very easy. Use the monkarus version for hassle free download and install OR the GenP version for a slightly more complicated install but the install is directly from Creative Cloud official. Edit: https://w14.monkrus.ws/ – use this link for the monkarus version. The site is in Russian but has a US flag/UK flag on the right bar to translate the site

      I haven’t touched an image editor that isn’t gimp in years. It does everything I could ever want and more. Installing it is as easy as typing sudo apt install gimp. No torrents, no cracks, no viruses. I really don’t understand why the vendetta against gimp is so strong. I do game modding for fun and actually have a use for “photoshop like” features and gimp delivers all this in a bullshit free package.

      Also, gimp is faster and starts up faster than photoshop.

    you could use GIMP, or even PhotoGIMP if you’re too used to photoshop’s behaviour and keybindings
