I currently have an Adobe CC subscription that I would really like to end, so am looking for some advice or recommendations. I have been searching around but am struggling to find alternatives due to some fairly strict requirements.

What I am looking for is a Lightroom style app for Linux and Android that would sync to the cloud, or ideally sync to my personal cloud storage. I’m happy to pay a one off lifetime payment but would prefer to donate to a FOSS project if possible.

I have started to play around with Darktable and do know that you can use remote storage but the syncing seems a little clunky.

Any suggestions at all will be very much appreciated.

      • I use Affinity 2, it’s mostly better in a lot of ways and slightly worse in a couple. I still don’t know how to use personas and I’m not sure of what they’re for, even though I was told to use them in a training video, lol. I used it but it never stuck.
      • Affinity 2 for publisher and illustrator.
      • I use Krita for tablet painting.
      • I use Blender for all 3D, sculpting and special effects for video editing. I miss the 2D animation program tbh. It was so easy to use. So if anyone has any recs for that, I’d appreciate it.
      • I use DaVinci Resolve for all video editing. I would pay for that, it’s fantastic. I’m thankful that it’s free for small users though because I’m freelance and it can get really tight sometimes.

      I’ve been using this flow for about 4 years so I’m not exactly sure what I’m missing. They did come out with a lot of new and innovative programs but it ended up not being worth it.

        Ah yeah, Affinity has been on my radar for a few years but disappointingly they do not seem interested in supporting the Android community, and even less so the Linux community (slightly more understandable as we are a rare breed 😋).

          Yeah, I’m on windows. I think it’s one or two dudes making the software too, I can imagine he’s being spread pretty thin.

            Fellow Affinity user here, also on PC. I haven’t looked back (much!) to Adobe. I still haven’t settled on a LR replacement, but that’s less important than having figured out PS -> AP.
