- sneak 5y agoBlackmagic Davinci Resolve is a good Premiere replacement and can replace parts of AE. It runs well on Linux. Pixelmator on macOS is a good Photoshop replacement. I got nothing for Lightroom or heavier uses of AE. Or Excel.
- GeoAtreides 5y agoFor Lightroom there is Darktable.
- sneak 5y agoDarktable is as much a Lightroom replacement as LibreOffice is an Excel replacement or Gimp is a Photoshop replacement, i.e. it absolutely is not. Source: portrait photographer for 20+ years that would ditch Adobe in a heartbeat if it were possible.
- vetinari 5y agoDarktable is in the uncanny valley with its similarity to Lightroom. It looks like LR, so your habits kick in, only to get the cold shower that Darktable is not really LR and the thing you wanted to do you must do differently.
- NexRebular 5y agoAlso missing is support for Pro Audio such as Nuendo and Dorico. If these would run on FreeBSD I would've swapped from OSX/Win years ago. At least there's some hope for Proton so gaming could work...
- Kye 5y agoReaper might run on FreeBSD with Linux binary support. It has a notation editor, so it might work as a Dorico replacement depending on your needs.
- NexRebular 5y agoSadly none of the free editors are as well developed as Dorico is at the moment including the new Musescore with it's Dorico "inspired" UI. Dorico's workflow just fits my needs perfectly at the moment. Reaper and Nuendo aren't really comparable either. Nuendo just has so much engineering behind it for audio post and multichannel (e.g. Atmos) not to mention expression maps and excellent MIDI editing. I do admit Reaper, if it runs on linuxulator, could work quite well as a prototyping tool on the go. Then again Cubasis and Dorico iPad does it too and can import straight to the Desktop versions. I do wish there were good open source options but, alas. Maybe some day...
- vetinari 5y agoIf you are on macOS, you can also try Affinity Photo as a Photoshop replacement.
- nopenopenopeno 5y agoPhotoshop CC 2018 runs great in Wine, with Wacom tablet support as well. For Illustrator, use CC 2019 to get hi-def display support in the GUI. I don’t use Illustrator much though, so I can’t vouch for how well it works.
- aceazzameen 5y agoThis is good to know. I still need to figure out which distribution of Linux to try out first. Having the ability to use my wacom tablet across a variety of software is a must.
- nopenopenopeno 5y agoUbuntu has a native wacom driver that just comes with the operating system. Just plug it in and find the Wacom Tablet panel in settings.
