Did you give Gimp a try? After initial struggles to adapt I don’t miss anything.

If you are not a heavy user, then https://photopea.com is a great free alternative

I have a licenced copy of Photoshop (work pays) and I still frequently use PhotoPea. It’s just faster for quick jobs.

Idk, I’m stuck with a portable version of CS6 which miraculously works on Linux. That said, I still don’t use it, I have no need for it

That is the most piracy thing I’ve ever heard. I have TONS of programs that I don’t use or have use for, but I do have them!

I think the goal isn’t actually selling you Photoshop, they care but not much.

The goal is stopping a photographer or other professional in the middle of their very busy workflow, when they absolutely can’t be interrupted, to make sure they get so annoyed they just pay to make it never happen again.

If you get tired of that, you can get Photoshop + Lightroom for about $2/month if you’re “in” Turkey. That will also get you access to the generative AI features.

Is it only a matter of signing up via VPN or is there more to it?
