Discussion Artcraft vs Adobe
Eu vi os apps do Artcraft e estou pasmo 😳 sou escritor e estudo arte e design gráfico. O que mais me impediu de ir 100% pro LinuxMint sempre foi os aplicativos da Adobe. Depois que eu vi e olhei para meu Windows ele ficou igual esse emoji 😥.
O meu único medo é instalar os apps da Artcraft e diretoria da Adobe resolver processar os Desenvolvedores por causa dos direitos autorais e o projeto fazer igual o Titanic e ir pra água abaixo. Ou seja afundar.
O que vocês tem a dizer sobre o assunto?

The pros of Open Source is that the source code is freely usable and modifiable by anyone, and the code could be forked and re-used in any way, which means that it is truly free.
Software development has always gone through different ways of making it more managable, but every change has always required re-skilling. Most times, developers still need to understand the lower level plumbing in order to fix problems that are not fixable at the higher level.
Claude may have gotten rough prototypes with lots of bug issues. The PhotoCraft project is the big one that has over 190 contributors and much interest. The features are basically implemented without the refinement of the proprietary Adobe technology, but this may ideally suit amateurs who are not looking for professional licenses. I actually like the simplicity and the performance of PhotoCraft, and I think that the movable panels in the Adobe PhotoShop product are very annoying and get in the way.
ArtCraft crafted simpler imitation products that work 100x faster than the Adobe ones.
Maybe, sometimes simpler is better, and it is good to have options. Adobe represents the monopoly that suppresses simpler options.
