Unwarranted Price Increase for Photoshop Bundle
I have been a loyal Adobe supporter and have bought many editions of Lightroom before it morphed into the Photoshop Grouping. I never use the cloud storage, Camera Raw, rarely use Photoshop, but do use Lightroom Classic. I suffered through the move to a subscription model and then several price increases. But this final insult of raising the price by almost 70% is really beyond belief.
I intend to spend the next few weeks checking out ON1 Raw, Darktable, Affinity Pro and any other free or cheaper software packages as it is very likely i will be leaving Adobe for hopefully greener pastures. It seems that they no longer want hobbyists, but just professionals, (who can claim a deduction for these price increases on their tax returns).
My first foray into On1 Raw is extremely promising. I think Adobe will lose people to competitors, who, while not necessarily as good, do offer a lot of the same features for a much better price and some features are even better than Adobes.
