I just love this guy when he’s riled up. Makes me feel all warm and cozy 🤣
And your clients are ok getting these files? Speaking for the studios I’ve worked out, our clients wouldn’t stick around if we didn’t give them industry standard files (psds, etc.).
What upsets me the most is everyone let me build a monopoly that has been strangleholding the design industry for like 2 decades.
You can export files as PSD and tiff with affinity, so it should work with clients
For the kind of work I have been doing I have not needed to hand over any psd files. Photoshop is(was) only a small step in my workflow and the main thing I get hired for is 3D modelling services. Regardless, I still work with NDA’d content and Adobe’s terms are invasive as hell.
Ya no argument there. Adobe is way out of bounds. We have largely moved to Figma but that was like pulling teeth as every was using Ps and Ai when I joined. Ai for wireframes had me tossing at night not gonna lie!
I remember when figma was about to be bought out by adobe, thankfully the deal got terminated for anti monopology reasons
