Consider X’s current audience and you’ll have your answer

What would be a good alternative to Adobe After Effects ? Something that works in the same way.

Thanks for sharing, This might be good enough in the future looking at the roadmap.

That is a video editor much like Adobe Premier or Final Cut Pro. After Effects is essentially Photpshop but with motion and animation. It’s mostly for VFX and Motion Graphics. Not video editing or audio.

I use Blender for video editing, and as long as I never use another video editing package, I am sure to remain perfectly happy with Blender.

Is it possible to learn such sorcery ?

octobob@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
I have to open PDFs all day long at work to read our schematics. No I don’t want an “AI assistant” or an “AI summary” on drawings of electrical wiring. And I need to close multiple menus to get rid of them, and the only option is “disable for this session”, no way to permanently turn them off
tiramichu@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I remember reading a story a while back about someone who owned a legit CS version with a proper serial and activation.
They had to change computer, and in doing so had to reactivate Photoshop, but it wasn’t working. They contacted Adobe support and explained the situation but support basically told him nope, not a chance, we aren’t helping you. You need to subscribe to new Photoshop.
So Adobe accepted that yes, he bought a perpetual licence for Photoshop and that yes, the reason it isn’t working is the online activation, but they still refused to help.
Scumbags.
kepix@lemmy.world 11 months ago
yupp, its not possible anymore. you have to crack your your own bought photoshop.

Greatjob Bluesky, One less Adobe monopoly

These days, bullying is used for good.
Skellysgirl@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Thanks just spent a lot tow time over telling Adobe where to go. Great way to vent. Whose next?

i like how i didn’t even know they were on bsky because they’re already added to the The Great AI/NFT/CRYPTO Cull blocklist.
WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
great, cant view it because it wants me to log in…
aeshna_cyanea@lemm.ee 11 months ago
It’s not “it” that wants you to log in, the devs set the site to be entirely public initially but users demanded an option to hide their profiles from logged out users.
The api endpoints are still public btw. Third party clients can see these profiles just fine
WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
heh, not a local problem, even archive.org captured it: web.archive.org/web/…/3jxwojift2y2n
fuck you, bluesky! knew all the time you are not a little bit better than twitter & co
cley_faye@lemmy.world 11 months ago
They started it by pretending to want to connect with artists.
Ledericas@lemm.ee 11 months ago
by charging them alot for using thier services.

We should all be bullying companies more… Less bullying people and more bullying companies and orgs!!
Yes people make up a company blah blah blah… Don’t care. Just don’t bully the people working there.
Skellysgirl@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Who do you think should be next?
slacktoid@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
Boycott all shitty companies… We make a list and we keep adding shitty companies to the list and present a list of alternatives.
Lyra_Lycan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
The leadership (is supposed to) represent the people, the people do not represent the leadership. Israelis do not represent the Israeli government. Employees of a Meta subsidiary do not represent Meta, Facebook, or Zuckerberg. Don’t attack McDonald’s employees because the burger is more expensive, YouTube employees because the content preys on children or residents/soldiers of a country because the government decides to mobilise its army against another community. Employees are just victims of capitalism, just working there because they must, irrespective of politics.
slacktoid@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
Well yeah I said leave the people working there alone and target the corp or org. And my reasons are what you just outlined in great detail. They are victims of capitalism.
zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Just don’t bully the people working there.
Not even if they’re C-suite?
JargonWagon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Key word is “working” people. C-Suite don’t work, just tell others to work.
slacktoid@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
They aren’t people, they are demons. So my rule still stands 🤣
yourgodlucifer@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Every company I’ve ever worked for deserves to be bullied.
SpicyColdFartChamber@lemm.ee 11 months ago
And billionaires, especially the Nazis variety.
I quite enjoyed Elon getting bullied over POE2 stream.
barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Bullying a bully is not bullying.
Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 11 months ago
So, cyberbullying and toxic gamer communities are very much a thing and definitely a problem, but I have to admit, that story really did make day… I laughed for a while, I shared it with my neighbors, it’s still fucking funny!
You know, the thing is… the whole mess was entirely Elon’s fault. If he just wanted an escape from his stressful life, he could totally just play the game and it would work out fine for him. But because he felt the narcissistic need to live stream it (because he apparently desperately needs others to tell him how awesome he is), he got his stupid face kicked into the mud. And that’s really on him…
slacktoid@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
Oh Nazis deserve to just be punched (nonstop).
You heard the time Elon was told to go back to Africa. That was hilarious.

I know Adobe is a dick of a company but all this event shows is how toxic Bluesky is. Seems the toxicity joined them from X.
zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
No shit. It’s like people who join Lemmy and then complain when it’s too much like reddit. The design of the platform determines what kind of community you get. People on Bluesky are going to bully corpos because that’s what they did on Twitter, and both of those platforms make it really, really easy.
AustralianSimon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
My point is the claimed narrative it isn’t as bad as X. To me it seems the only difference is the person running the show. But then you look at mastodon instances and there is no where near that level of behaviour.
Hell Lemmy is pretty civil if you block hexbear.
spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
I don’t necessarily agree that this means blue sky is toxic (and I’m speaking as someone who doesn’t use the app), I see it as a toxic company finding out what people think of them.
As you noted adobe is a dick (and that’s one hell of an understatement), and they regularly make anti-consumer choices with their software and pricing. This is just them seeing what you’ve been ignoring for a decade or more.
Maybe the multi billion dollar company should

I reckon it would have been far sweeter if they were completely ignored IMHO. 1000% more brutal.

I’ve replaced my Adobe Audition with Reaper. I do recommend it
sirico@feddit.uk 11 months ago
Finally lost my reaper purchase after nearly 15 years. Remember when buying it at uni thinking of been a bit hard done by I was only supported till like version 7
BassTurd@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I didn’t, but I do want more people to switch to Reaper so that they can get more money and keep getting better.
cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
adobe will charge you $20 a month to read their skeets then charge a $100 cancellation fee if you want to stop following them.
peteyestee@feddit.org 11 months ago
It’s $20 for the readers bundle, $1289 per year if you want to see photos and comment.
jsomae@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
what are skeets
Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Tweets, but BSky. It’s gross on purpose because the devs didn’t want it to catch on and they Streisand’d. They’ve since embraced it lmao.
exasperation@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Slang term for ejaculating, usually with some projectile distance implied. Very popular term in the mid-2000’s, see Get Low by Lil Jon.

Same thing happened with Proton.

proton did it to themselves by embracing the us and their fascist leader.
SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 11 months ago
I assume that’s the VPN proton and not the linux compatibility layer proton, right?

And the CEO just did it again, because apparently it wasn’t enough backlash the first time.
Arkouda@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
If one isn’t a total nutcase who can pass every left wing social purity test ever devised you will be bullied off of Bluesky. Just like if you cannot do the same in reverse with right wing purity tests on Twitter.
Adobe sucks, but Bluesky is trash as well. Which should have been expected considering it is a Twitter clone.
deathbird@mander.xyz 11 months ago
Agree that BlueSky is trash, but it’s more of a shitlib echo chamber. I agree though that the problem is largely intrinsic to the structure. Public microblogging and its consequences have been a disaster for humanity etc.
grrgyle@slrpnk.net 11 months ago
Funny you mention that, I was just reading this 2019 article on starbreaker about the hard limits of public microblogging as we’ve been reproducing it over and over, even here on the fediverse.
It’s kind of got under my skin.
Buelldozer@lemmy.today 11 months ago
It’s pretty easy in both places actually, just don’t talk about politics.
Turns out our Grandparents were pretty damn smart with that “Don’t talk about Religion and Politics” rule.
Arkouda@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Your Grandparents had a Nazi problem that was never resolved as a result of “Not talking politics”. One cannot resolve bad politics or religion by ignoring it until it goes away.
dumbluck@midwest.social 11 months ago
“Three things you should never talk about at work: politics, religion, and seggs.” Ageless advice.

Jesus Fucking Christ man… is this really how you see the world?
brucethemoose@lemmy.world 11 months ago
OP’s being abrasive, but I sympathize with the sentiment. Bluesky is algorithmic just like Twitter.
…Lemmy feels like a political purity test to me, TBH. Like, I love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but at the same time mega upvoted posts/comments like “X person should kill themself,” explulsion of nuance in specific issues, leaks into every community and such are making me step back more and more.
Arkouda@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Jesus Fucking Christ man… is this really how you see the world?
Do you have anything to actually add to the conversation or just here to comment on my very reasonable point of view based on personal experience and information provided by others?
Sorry that “Bluesky is a Twitter clone and sucks just as bad as Twitter” is too hot of a take for you to the point of being unbelievable.
Dekkia@this.doesnotcut.it 11 months ago
Where you bullied of Bluesky for saying something they didn’t like?
Arkouda@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Nah, I left before it got that bad when I noticed I was being blocked and put on mass “block lists” with MAGA folk for saying the Democrats are just as much to blame for Trump as the Republicans are.
