How do I edit a PDF without Acrobat?

[beelia]

After decades of working with Adobe's excellent products, I am finally fed up with the subscription model, and am looking for alternatives.

I think I just found the answer to my own question:

I also love Illustrator, but it's time to develop my proficiency with GIMP. What a tragedy.

Is this a question? And by the way, Acrobat is still available as a non-subscription "perpetual" license.

Illustrator is nor a PDF editor and it is only available with subscription.

The best free PDF editor is LibreOffice Draw.
