- CWuestefeld 6mo agoI'm not sure how what Adobe insists on is at all relevant. Reality informs us that there have always been competitors in the field: GIMP, DarkTable, ACDSee, Luminar, and many others. It's surely true that their existence has been pushing Adobe to improve. And the good news for everyone is that they have: Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop are improved products now, and so are those other competitors.
