Run Pixelmator and you’ll see what I mean. Photoshop and Illustrator are slow and not optimized for Mac. It takes ages to open, do simple things and even export compared to Pixelmator. I find designers get stuck in the Adobe mess. Every day it’s like some person at Adobe says: “We should add one more feature to Photoshop.” It is overloaded with bs . Adobe lost its focus. And it is not a creative safe place to design anymore. Adobe got greedy. They cared about one thing. Their stock price. As and agency owner I have spend tens of thousands on Adobe products over the years. I just saved future me another few thousand. Best decision I’ve ever made.
