I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t anything any suggestions?
How extensive of editing are we talking? If you just need some of the more basic features, there is Paint.NET which is surprisingly useful for a lot more than you’d think. Definitely not as feature-rich as Photoshop though.
Mostly basic stuff I am not really experienced in photo editing and I’m trying to practice and learn
mtPaint is pretty user-friendly.
Photopea – online, but can be used as a PWA. One of the best! Answering here, as well. Saw your other post.
Have you looked at Krita?
I’m quite fond of Paint.net on Windows, especially with the boltbait plugin pack.
It’s powerful, easy to use and if it cannot do something, there are tons of user developed plugins.
I use Affinity photo. Great program, and has a very affordable pay once model, no subscription crap.
Have you heard of GIMP?
Yea I’ve tried it but I struggled with its UI and it just wasn’t what I was looking for
What are you looking for? If you are into painting, Krita might be worth a try.
I use Krita it’s a favorite of mine but I’m looking for photo editing more than anything
Well, for photo editing try Raw Therapee or Darktable!
If you struggled with the UI because you’re familiar with Photoshop, you may want to have a look at PhotoGIMP.
Otherwise Photopea.com is a free online photoshop clone.
I could never get photogimp to work. Like literally it would appear to install OK but just nothing would happen, Couldn’t figure it out.
Also holy crap Photopea is actually impressive I did not expect it to be that advanced. Thanks for sharing.
alternativeto.net Is a good place to look for software alternatives.
I was looking there this morning they’ve given me plenty of software I use but sadly not the photoshop alternate I’ve been looking for
Right but Photoshop has a horrible UI too. So maybe if you want similar features, you have to pay the price in time spent learning it.
Of course if you don’t need the features, great. Update your post with what you actually want to do.
Ease off the gas a bit dude.
Sorry for trying to be helpful. Have a nice day.
I think we both know there are better ways to communicate when trying to be helpful, namely ways that are not tinged with shaming/condescendion. I hope the rest of your weekend is nice as well.
Nothing I wrote was condescending or shamed the person for asking what they asked. Unfortunately, people like you live in technical forums all across the internet. You make a snap judgment that an on-topic focused response is an attack when it’s not, and you decide to play the white knight. Meh.
Take care, my friend.
If you’re on macOS, there’s https://flyingmeat.com/acorn/ and https://www.pixelmator.com/photomator/
Photopea. There will barely be a learning curve because it’s designed to be exactly like photoshop.
i use pixlr which is a lot like photopea
There is Darktable and Digikam too. Little different direction.
Isn’t digikam primarily a photo organizer?
Yes but it does have some editing and metadata management features. Personal opinion is everyone should start with a photo manager and then only use another program if you need more. On Linux Shotwell is another photo manager and Digikam is cross platform. I know my wife uses just Shotwell. She has never needed more. I use Digikam because it is a little more powerful and flexible but less elegant. My wife is into photos… me not as much too.
Good info! Appreciate it
