Or just use Photopea like a non-self abusive person
try gimp first and if you spend 15 minutes raging, use photopea.
I have the opposite problem
I learned GIMP first
When I try to use Photoshop/Photopea/whatever I’m useless at it because the keymaps are all different.
i don’t graphic design or edit images really and photopea is barable if i want to do more than add text.
Too late, in too deep with gimp never gonna leave 🥲
That’s why I said Photopea instead of GIMP
I’ve never had any trouble running adobe software on Linux.
I’ve also never tried, but still the statement is technically correct.
I’m laughing way too hard at this.
Honestly this is the best answer.
Like, use the tools that work for your use case?
I fucking hate macs but man using a video editor on windows was a pain back in the day. Where I would rather set up a server on Linux, than use whatever the hell windows servers operate.
What? This is a normal headphone dongle for macs.
Don’t be ridiculous, mac users have neat and tidy usb hubs. iPhone users on the other hand…
Good faith response here so pardon me if it’s a swoosh moment. One of my devices is a fairly recent Mac. And it has a headphone jack. Which I appreciate greatly.
But is it SCSI or 1/4" TRS?
Connected through every single coax connector made by man.

You can skip 3 of these adapters if you upgrade to the latest libraries, downgrade your microcode, turn off WiFi, and bench press a goat. It turns out it was the goat involved I’m the process, rather than the sacrifice, that made that stuff work.
Say what you will, this is an efficient and elegant way to store your adapters. I’m envious.
Until you need one and your OCD having ass can’t break the chain so you buy a new one …
There are Linux users trying to use Photoshop?
As a challenge… for science 👀…
The answer is very much “Don’t run Photoshop”
(Fuck Adobe. There, I said it)
“It is always ethical to pirate adobe”
It’s never unethical to pirate Adobe, but it’s always more ethical to use Free Software instead and deny Adobe the mindshare.
It’s far more ethical to make the company lose money
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
Investors hate this one glitch!
They don’t care as they have a massive profit margin. What matters more is the market share. You got to break the standard way of thinking industry wide.
That’s not at all how piracy works. They don’t lose any money by me not buying their product, the money was never theirs to lose. They can earn money if I buy it, but if I don’t, then nothing changed. It’s not like every company is entitled to my money.
Pirating or using Gimp or Krita instead, has the exact same effect on them, ie me not buying their product.
You must be fun at parties.
Lol I’ve been using cs5 until yesterday. V24 now
Gimp is behind on features and ui optimisation and krita is art focused
Voice of reason
I never understood that argument. Do or do not.
Fuck Adobe
Goto www.PhotoPea.com instead. :)
Sadly there is no alternative that is even remotely as capable
It depends on what you do
Well the obvious answer would be all the professional Photoshop capable things man, we can love Linux and still admit there’s areas for growth
True but I think most people don’t use every feature
If you want to edit photos then Affinity is passable, and GIMP is a joke.
If all you want to do is draw, then Krita is a very capable alternative to Photoshop, but being good at only a specific subset of Photoshop capabilites doesn’t turn it into a replacement for it
I make my memes in gimp and it works for me.
Depends what you want to do to photos. It just adjustments without trickery, darktable is fantastic.
Yeah, it’s kind of true. I’ve tried a bunch of Lightroom and Photoshop alternatives. Pixelmator and Photomator for iOS and macOS are my absolute favorites. I wish I could get around Affinity software better, but I can do 95% of what I need in Pixelmator. And I love some of the select tools. Bonus: Davinci Resolve is a big switch for Premiere users— but worth it, and even CapCut’s free features can help with the basics.
Gimp has been just fine.
Fuck I’d love an actual equivalent alternative on Windows too. GIMP, while great in the past, is nowhere near modern Photoshop, it’s closer to modern Paint, which is just sad.
There’s a ton of people and businesses that hate Adobe, the lack of real alternatives is fascinating.
Krita, rawtherapee, dark table, digikam, affinity. Just depends what you are trying to do. If you’re used to photoshop there’s nothing exactly the same and it will take effort to move but I think it’s worth it, I’m still on the journey of learning as a hobbyist and have mostly been using dark table for photo editing
Darktable is fine as a hobbyist, but it doesn’t fully replace Lightroom when you get into semi-professional and professional workloads.
I need to give it another try, but my 12TB raw file library is so unwieldy to manage that I haven’t tried importing it all there. Plus the AI generative removal and Denoising is pretty important to a lot of my workflows.
When I first used the Adobe suite it was on a Mac, I assumed it ran best on non-Windows machines. This was in 2005… Why would they have to make it so hard to use on Linux?
It’s a conspiracy, orchestrated by Big Adapter
They just don’t wanna port it to Linux… it’s basically that simple.
Are you trying to use a guitar as an input device for PhotoShop?
???
What else would you use?
Reverse polarity positron emitter.
You get the most accurate memes if you use the large hadron collider as your input device. Though be careful, sometimes you can get a bit of antimatter on them, so don’t touch or lick the meme.
Surely you’d want the detector?
That’s the fun part. The emitter is the detector. It will invert the beam of it detects anything.

Are you criticizing my MIDI art?
I was taking to my sister, who is an artist, about setting up Linux and warned them about poor Adobe support. Their response was “⭐ 𝒻𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝒶𝒹𝑜𝒷𝑒 ⭐” due to their AI shenanigans and high costs.
So thanks modern Adobe for making it easier for people to switch to Linux.
I just went through this last night…VMware workstation +windows 10 + passthrough.
Not too hard with WinApps. I just use GIMP.

I was hoping I could plug it into my guitar & watch the sounds on an old computer monitor…
Do you think it would work?
All we need to do is build a similar setup and then find a guitar and a CRT and see what happens
Edit: actually, I’ve got a guitar and a CRT and maybe half of the pieces there. The big thing I’m concerned about is destroying the CRT. I have no idea how sensitive CRTs are or how much power is coming from a guitar.
I have no idea if it would work, but I do have a spare CRT monitor if you blow yours up.
Maybe look into a direct box? I had to use one when recording to change the ohms between the instrument & the usb interface in the tower.
I’ll take a look at it. The CRT is a bit sentimental to me (it’s the same model as the one my first PC had, managed to find one on eBay in good condition after like, a year of searching) which is why I’m concerned about blowing it up. However, I might see if any electronics recycling places in my area have a shitty, beat-up CRT TV they’d be willing to part with. That said, I discovered recently that most of the remaining recycling places in my area are run by computer enthusiasts and tend to sell or hold onto anything with any value like CRTs though, so wish me luck.
Kinda genius really. Into old PCs but don’t wanna pay eBay prices for them? Become an electronics recycler and then people will pay you to take their old SGI workstations and Sony BVMs.
The only way you’ll blow your CRT is if you tried to plug that dongle monstrosity into the speaker output of a power amp haha, guitars have a high impedance signal. Direct boxes actually lower the impedance, so that definitely won’t help make your output safer. (Still safe) So I say go for it directly from the guitar, the worst that can happen is nothing, (which is likely) which probably means you actually do need to lower the impedance with a direct box. (Which I still doubt would work but who knows) An amp with a line out or a digital pedal board would be the most likely options for actually getting sound through.
Do you know what the tolerances are on connectors like VGA, coax, and bnc? My monitor has VGA and BNC, so BNC might be easier to use (fewer intermediate steps, more control due to separate sockets for sync, r/g/b, etc). I’m curious if you might know how high the voltage can go before I run the risk of frying something.
Also, my guitar is an acoustic-electric with a preamp, which would probably make a difference.
Just dropping this here https://forum.mattkc.com/viewtopic.php?t=336
of course he uses arch
You can’t do that shit any other way, you use either Arch or Void.
true
He uses custom build Nobara
mattkc USES LINUX? based.
he uses KDE too
i didnt know that its rare finding a youtuber on linux + kde isnt bad unless your on a low end pc or have weird crashing problems
I love Matt’s videos.
He had a video describing how he completely switched to Linux and he showcased Photoshop in the video. It was immensely satisfying for me.
