    Why do I need a leather fetish to edit photos?

    My favorite kind of jokes are the ones that take me a few seconds to figure out. Bravo, OP.

      I just checked this out. Seems great, but I was bummed to see they only support iOS, and not Android. Any idea if they plan to extend to Android?

            If they want to use the application … they are forced to purchase a whole system.

            Not so difficult to understand.

            Or is there any other way to use the application?

              Lol, you’re not being FORCED to do anything dude. No one here is FORCING you to use it. Not so difficult to understand.

              Also, you can run it on Linux using WINE

      How does it compare to PS? After becoming comfortable in PS, I find the work flow in anything else cumbersome and hard to adjust to.

      Isn’t Affinity more an Illustrator alternative since it’s vector?

        Just like Photoshop it has multiple softwares, Affinity is the brand name. It has a rastor program and and vector program, as well as a third software I think is like light room

      Your use of > rather than ≥ correctly indicates that Affinity is not a Photoshop alternative at all (going by other comments about how it’s not even available on Linux).

      there’s a popular free image editing program called GIMP (judging by the post id assume it’s probably also open-source). Anyways, if you Google “GIMP” you’ll probably see a lot of pictures of leather.

        Ah, yeah. The image had me thinking there was some other meaning for FOSS I didn’t know about.

      Foss stands for free and open source software.

      You can use the code to make your own fork/version, as long it’s also free and open. Or I’m wrong and somebody will correct me.

        Free (as in freedom) software bares the stipulation that if you use it, it must remain free. The criteria for being free are 1. You may view the source code. 2. You may edit the source code. 3. You may distribute the source code. 4. You may distribute the modifications to the source code. If you use the software the freedoms given to you are to be payed forward to all subsequent people who use it.

        Open source only says you can see the source code, but it can be used in any closed sources or proprietary program.

        In short. Free software is about ethics. Open Source software is about pragmatics (or so some may claim)

      Oh man, when sync for Lemmy launched, so many people lost their minds of it not being foss.

      It was a glories few weeks.

    Apparently apple joined the fediverse the other day based on my feed, I don’t see anyone slighting them.

      Did you try to run it through wine or vm like qemu?

        Not personally but it’s been done with mixed results. Usually the application on it’s own is stable but doesn’t work with plugins and who knows about it’s integration with USB control and MIDI devices. Depending on your setup latency can be a significant issue and vm can introduce quite a lot. Reaper is my DAW of choice for Linux but Ableton Live is what I enjoy most and make the best stuff in. I don’t need a powerful machine for what I do with it though so an old laptop has always sufficed, which works out anyway because I don’t care as much if it gets damaged or stolen etc. Just wish I could be a full time linuxbro :(
