Does Adobe realise that by constantly "disabling" my pirated Photoshop, they're just ensuring I always have the latest and greatest version?

you could use GIMP, or even PhotoGIMP if you’re too used to photoshop’s behaviour and keybindings

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

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

Still using the adobe suite version I pirated in 2014. Should probably look for a newer one, it’s been almost 10 years

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!

Yeah Pirating stuff is a hobby, lmao. It’s fun to download all the free shit you can

What version do you use ? I left out after CS6 and the subscription move. Is the latest version easily cracked?

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.
