Comment on “Software is over”: Bold AI developer takes aim at Adobe with open source clones

Aren’t most of the people that are ‘stuck’ on Adobe stuck because they have a workflow that involves eg. full support for high-end digital cameras, asset management stuff like Bridge, full colour-matching support for high-end printing systems; and having it all work together well enough that it can reliably power media businesses from small to large? That’s usually the functionality gaps that are not well-served by open-source alternatives, and what’s allowing Adobe to price gouge and push unwelcome licenses through.
The issue is not that we don’t have enough half-baked clones of the Photoshop UI where only half the buttons work. That kind of completely misunderstands why businesses are stuck on Adobe.

Misunderstanding stuff that anyone in the field takes as obvious is kinda the default for slop coders.

they are this decade’s “hey, I have an idea for an app” people
Same people, but now they have a thing that allows them to only have an idea and not any skills related to turning their idea into an actual app.
