I want to know what kind of apps/programs y’all recommend to people or just use personally. This is just in general, could be anything from a game to a media codec. I personally use Linux but stuff for other operating systems is welcome too.

    For drawing, definitely Paint Tool SAI! When I began drawing digitally, a friend gifted me two programs for me to use, Illustrator and Paint Tool SAI. I ended up settling on the latter. It is a very old program that got released in 2008, but it is lightweight, fast, stable, and has really good blending and pen stabilization options!

      The latest version is from 2016 and Paint Tool Sai 2 had its most recent update in August, no? I agree, it’s a good program, I’m just worried that “it got released in 2008” might paint the wrong picture :)

        Oh I know about Paint Tool SAI 2, the version I’m using is 1.1.0 of SAI 1, which is pretty ancient haha.
