    Luckily there are alternatives to all of these.

    Duck duck go can replace Google search. Dropbox can replace Google drive. Firefox can replace Chrome.

    Mastodon replaces x / Twitter

    Go buy a brother printer instead of HP

    As far as Adobe, we do have photopea… The rest are harder.

      Illustrator → Inkscape

      Lightroom → Darktable/CaptureOne/Rawtherapee

      They may need some getting used to if you come from adobe, but they are all very capable.

        Inkscape doesn’t support typeface tracking which is a problem for me. I use Affinity Designer, which isn’t free, but also isn’t a subscription model.

      Eh. We’ll see how long that lasts. All these big firms tend to follow the pack.

      Honestly, best hardware decision I’ve made in a while.
