Is there a Lightroom alternative for iPad?

I kept an older machine so I could keep my non-subscription version of Photoshop. It still works fine and meets my needs.

Seriously? There's a fee for cancelation? 5:39

When I click on stats for nerds it DOES NOT show volume. I will go elsewhere to watch videos. KZbin is holding me hostage. If I cannot hear videos because the volume is turned down so low why watch KZbin. And I am not going to pay for anything to help increase the volume. KZbin needs to turn it up. This is a ridiculous protocol. What moronic idiot decided that this was a good idea?

Even Adobe Reader is such bloteware now. And you cannot turn off the auto updating.

What a bunch of whining babies who won't read the t&cs. Mr. Green, you should be ashamed of spreading FUD.

I was trying to find sounds to edit out sounds but I can just copy other background noise from the video. Good stuff!

don't wait a year, just order a new credit card...

Depends on what features of Lightroom you use.. I switched to Darktable and after the learning curve I find it to be more powerful for my needs than Lightroom was (Tone Equalizer, diffuse/sharpen, parametric masks etc etc.) If your needs aren't super complex you could do fine with RawTherapee. If you want a commercial raw developing software, Capture One is well liked as well.

ADOBE = GREED

See that videos like this are trending a lot lately. Simply do the only right thing, cut all ties to Adobe. There are better options anyway.

Adobe Acobat was a core program from the origin of Adobe. I used it in business for decades owning versions from "3" through "11". After retirement, I had little need of it, but it was there. Last year, I had to upgrade my computer, requiring that Acrobat be re-installed. That installation required not just the usual processes, but in the final step, you had to access your "Adobe Account" on line to recover the final password for installation. Now, here's the trick. When you try to access your Adobe Account, you cannot. After catching a live Adobe rep on the phone, Adobe finally admitted that when they moved to a subscription mode, they deleted all the existing Acrobat user accounts, so no pre-existing customer could re-install the non-subscription Acrobat software they had purchased. It took an hour and a quarter of phone chat, but in the end, Adobe caved and remotely activated my installation. Of course, if I have to re-install Acrobat in the future, there is no guarantee that I'll get the same result.

I have never paid for a single piece of software. Just call me Captain Jack Sparrow, a pirate. I have never bought Windows or Adobe, and I build computers and am a professional photographer. I also dabble in digital art and 3D modeling and CAD. I thought back then that paying $1200 for software that edits photos is insane, and now the idea of paying $60 for software to edit photos is still insane. I have never paid and I never will. Autodesk Inventor, 3ds Max, Maya, Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity Designer, Camtasia, Corel Painter -- never paid for any of it. And I never will. People, learn to create rules in your Windows Firewall, and go nuts. F*ck subscriptions. Know what pisses me off is the fact that colleges are making students pay for Adobe subscriptions -- because they are beholden to Adobe, for whatever reason -- even if the student only needs Adobe for a single day, or week, or month, or however long it takes to finish a project required for a class. Even though that student will only have need for that software for however long it takes for he or she to complete a college project requiring Adobe, he or she is locked into Adobe's subscription for a year. THAT is the basis for a lawsuit, it is patently evil. Nevermind the headache of getting out of that subscription. And don't think for a moment that Adobe doesn't know this. Of course they do. And the colleges promoting Adobe know this too. I wouldn't be surprised if Adobe were giving colleges across the country free licenses for college instructors as long as the colleges required the students to buy the Adobe subscriptions out of their own pockets. Again, people, pay for nothing. Even if it isn't a subscription model, it is almost certainly massively overpriced. Just find some key generators, some cracks, some DLLs, and go nuts. I don't care. The little guy struggling to create a business model or break into an industry doesn't have the money to pay $2000 for CAD software. It's ridiculous. The little guy needs to get smarter. Keep your money. Those corporations are rich enough.

I just don't agree with the subscriptiom model, and I don't care if most people agree on that. One-time perpetual license is one way to go! So practical!

thanks i have a canon t7i ive had it since about 2017 i plan to record more video podcasts with it now as opposed to my iphone 13 11:23

Totally agree

If the terms change mid contract/subscription that you don't agree with you should have the option to cancel at no fee/early termination because the contract is no longer valid. That sounds fair to me .

Bro Adobe started their shit 20 years ago, too late to start complaining now.

Adobe is full-on evil in terms of greed. I have never seen a company so greedy. Their products are all EXTREMELY expensive... and to be honest, they are pretty poorly-written. Meanwhile, their CEO, an EAST INDIAN (of an American company) has moved all of their software developers to India. This guy makes $44M a year. He should be forced out at the very least.

AI or not, they are trying to set a precedent under which they can access and use your work for free. That collection of work should be treated as confidential. I don't want random people viewing my stuff. As for AI, it would be a tall order to demand that each and every element in an image, video, sound be given credit to the original creator but, we should have some say in what areas we do not want it used.

The olny thing I can say is tha I use affinity Photo for 3 years now and it's great. I used Adobe some 12 years ago, had a break from photography due family matters and went straight to Affinity when I restarted

If you're an audio engineer you do have choice; and audition is the worst one you can make.

You are using Apple 🤣😂🤣 Cry on !

How do you do this with Filmora?

The reason that they want to scrape all of your files is they need to build some machine learning model that requires billions of images to train. Without these images they are zucked. Hence the strongarm tactics, they need to force you.

Thanks for doing this. I have been an Adobe customer since 2000. I never really looked at their business practices. I use the entire suite of their products. I’m not sure how I could replace them all.

Something that should be able to work without the internet should NEVER be a subscription. I moved to Affinity. Never looked back. Get it while it's half off.

I can feel your pain, I stopped using adobe long time ago as a professional photographer. As a Lightroom alternative, I use Darktable It’s the best open source photo editing software that has never let me down for my professional photo editing. If I need to do anything beyond Darktable I use affinity photo. there is another alternative, which is much better than Lightroom is Luminar Neo. You should try it.

I’ve still got my copy of Lightroom 6 on a CD. I may end up reloading it and unsubscribing from my plan. Lightroom 6 can run my catalogue and I’ll use Topaz Labs for everything else.

It makes a lot of sense if you want to grab every penny you want. That is why more and more companies go to subscription based service. You even have to pay a subscription for the use of the heated seats in your car that is your car and it's already build in. It's just putting the customers in the dumb seat and grab every cent they have. There could be a little loophole though. If you want to opt out and you don't get fully opt out, it's "defective software" so you can break open the contract. Let them go to court, you will win that because you can't opt out.

Never had a problem myself, cry some more

I dumped Lightroom after it went to subscription. I switched to Capture one, and imported my 32 GB catalog into it with no problems. Edits remained, as well as keywords.

Once they have your money, no reason to innovate. Besides their unethical practices, Adobe soft really sucks. Photoshop? Bloated, glitchy, ancient. Premiere? Blows chunks compared to davinci Resolve. Etc.

Stop using adobe NOW.

I just cancelled my adobe subscriptions 2 months into an annual contract. I contacted customer support and told them I don't agree with their ToS, and to cancel immediately. Which they did, and tried to offer me the product for half price. I told them to piss off, and cancel. No more adobe subscription for me. I told them, they changed the rules, and I do not agree. I pulled all files, and now I am done. This stuff has to go.

you sound really good on that sm57

I really hate abobe. i dont know how ive gone this long using premere ... gah

Subscription are just worst.… we are now realizing cracking software was good….these bs compnies are just worst only thing they care is about sucking more monthly cut from us

This is awesome! The first library I landed on didn't have what I was looking for and googling these stuff didnt make things any better for me so for a moment I was on a standstill! you're a life saver man

Audio is totally amazing. The last short horror I filmed, I recorded all the foley myself and it's totally magic when you see it fitting in perfectly with the shots you filmed. God, I gotta catch up with Pete!

Adobe phukin sucks now, they became the enemy

I stopped using Adobe products when they switched to subscriptions in 2011. Never gave these arrogant, assholes another penny since.

##BOYCOTT ADOBE

I love how serato DJ made it easy to cancel the subscription. They not only made it easy , they also reminded me that i can always use the free version if i don’t need all the pro features. If I’m ever turning from hobby DJ to professional user, I’m definitely going to re-subscribe and give my money to a fair company

adobe AI really did the sun in the corner. All it miss is that smiling face XD

Why people are still paying Adobe?

Eventually if the world is lucky, Adobe will go bankrupt over this as an inspiration to any and all other companies trying their toxic practices. Probably won't happen but I can dream.

I understand and respect anyone who wishes to rent software, but that does not work for me at all. I also do not trust the idiotic notion of having to log in with credentials to use the software. I need to be able to go back to my original files and reuse them - the software subscription model effectively holds my own creations hostage. The entire thing, as far as I am concerned, is toxic. I gave up Adobe as soon as they went to a subscription model and I am glad I did.

I don't use any Adobe product while connected to the internet. I have never trusted them.
