This is absolutely my experience of Adobe software too. Terribly engineered with priorities weighted for the board rather than users.
I’ve been a designer for +20 years and sans-Adobe for five, I absolutely recommend any young designers to avoid the Adobe workflow. You don’t need it.
Photoshop = Pixelmator (Kitura is also very good)
Illustrator/Indesign = Affinity Designer
Highly precise vectors I draw in Glyphs/Fontlab.
- jer0me 5y agoJust to add to this list: Gravit Designer is quite good for small vector projects, though it is a subscription. Adobe Lightroom (the new one) and possibly more can be installed from the App Store without all the Creative Cloud bloat.
- chanc3e 5y agoGravit is new on me. I'm bias against web apps, but it's very cool a someone is playing in that space. Thanks! It's beautiful to see that inside a decade we've gone from having a monoculture of Illustrator as the sole vector app (post freehand) to having multiple very capable competitors on all platforms.
