This. I high recommend that software so you don't fall for the AI trap Adobe had set up.

I don't have an answer to your question, but I would recommend a FOSS alternative to adobe products across the board.

Not sure what kind of features they are looking for, but GIMP has been able to do everything I've ever needed

Yes, it's actually called GIMP. It's not a kink thing... Yet 😏

For the Christians there was a build called Glimpse.

I'm aware that I'm not directly answering your question here, but I actually no longer consider Photoshop worth pirating.

It takes about three or four hours of study to become proficient in all of the core functionality of GIMP, which for me added up to less time than I spent messing around with photoshop cracks over the years.

I use both GIMP and photoshop professionally (PS CC on an employer's hardware) and I think learning GIMP is a much better than investment of your time. I particularly recommend following a video course online from the beginning. There are both free and paid ones. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions.

i want to try graphic design for a shirt what software you recommend?

[–] oeuf@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 days ago

I think people who want to go deep with vector graphics usually use Inkscape but I would do it in GIMP because its vector functionality is adequate, I do a lot of raster work (photography) and I'm already proficient in it.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Inkscape if it's vector art. Gimp if it's bitmap.

Read through this https://wiki.dbzer0.com/piracy/megathread/

Once you find a torrent, it will almost certainly include installation instructions, make sure you follow them.
