@darktable this news article is from 2019 mind!

@bezekium its making the rounds again today, and we like things spicy.

"It’s yet another example of how in the modern era, you increasingly don’t actually own the things you’ve spent your hard-earned money on."

🤑💩

@darktable a few (many) years ago, when I finally got the 1st job with a good pay, I decided to buy a license of Lightroom. But it was the year that Adobe decided that it was moving to yearly subscription. I didn't want to lock my edits in a subscription program so I looked for alternatives and I found Darktable. It took a full read of the manual and a few tutorials, but I've never looked back and I'm happy since then.

@darktable come on guys, you don't need to be all "adobe is evil", your software is actually good
@lain @darktable using it since 2017, when I got my DSLR
@splitshockvirus @darktable at this point paying for adobe is riskier than pirating it

@darktable I hope the creators of #BFDI don't get sued for using #Macromedia #Flash 8 from 2005...

@darktable @largess My old laptop barely runs with newer software. I once purchased software that didn’t require hardware upgrades every fucking 18 months. Now I’m forced to subscribe instead of using previous versions paid in full for?

Adobe is a damned vampire.
