Unironically the current situation with Sony.

Why are you selling Playstations in a country that can't make their own PSN accounts???

Minimum amount for photoshop is 22$/month

Pirate photoshop

Delete it

Pirate again

Repeat 30 times

Adobe looses 660$

If everyone does this adobe will loose so much

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago

This is what Adobe genuinely thinks will happen

They get the money back when you delete it.

Imagine it was the other way around when people cancel their subscribtions

It's not even the price, I don't even have the option to buy some content. What the hell, so many years and these people didn't understood that we will watch the movie/show regardless of you wanring to sell it to me or not.

i.e. Shudder is not in my country, there is no "legal" way for.me to watch their shitty.movies. Do I just accept ir? No! I download the fuck out of that crappy cheap shit

even if you’re in a “legal region” you still have to use a third-party website or app to find out which service has that episode of that season of that show because no service can be bothered to carry a complete show

I don’t even have the option to buy some content

For you it's the general availability, but I also want to put importance on the "buy": I just want to buy something outright, not pay for a subscription that locks me into using awful apps, enforcing ridiculous rules and giving me a lesser experience than the "free" version.

I pay $0 for GIMP. And it's easy to install: yay -S gimp

[–] Valmond 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I pay 0€ for Krita, it doesn't replace photoshop either.

[–] Coreidan 10 points 1 month ago

GIMP isn’t even comparable to PS tho. It’s not a replacement. It can’t even do half the things.

I use aura, BTW.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA 1 points 1 month ago

also paint.net

That response doesn't answer the question, though. Do the yell "Arrrr" or "Yo ho ho" when pirating photoshop?

I don't pirate Photoshop, but when pirating other things i exclusively yell "Yarrr!"

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

I go "Boo biiiip booooop grrrrrrrrrrrrrr uuuuuuhh piiiiiiiip uhiiiiihuiiii tiiiyyytuuuuuu KGGHGHGHGGHGH" when I pirate Photoshop.

Might need to upgrade my router sometime though.
