@andycarolan NO 🥲 and as I tell my 4-year-old, "no is a full sentence" LOL.
So scared for my darling Pixelmator Pro, which I have been using for years. And I don't dare look to see if now Pages and Numbers are paid apps. Sigh times a million and RIP Aperture while we're at it (I will never forget!)
Time to finally install CryptPad and get into Gimp and Linux alternatives I suppose
@_elena LOL @ “NO is a full sentence” 😅
Too many things are subscription now… it’s just overwhelming!
I’ve heard that Pages and Numbers are unaffected, although there are extra ‘premium’ features added with the Creator subscription. I got this info from a YouTube video, and am yet to investigate it personally, so might be incorrect.

Do we need yet another subscription service?
@andycarolan We don’t need no Creator Studio
We don’t need no more subscriptions -

I think: “bye, Apple!”

@andycarolan I only want Pixelmator Pro on the iPad, so at the moment it looks like a non-starter as I don’t want to pay for all the other apps that I will never use.

@andycarolan Hey, what’s not to love about previously full versions of free apps that came with your system (Keynote, Pages, Numbers, etc.) suddenly becoming lite versions?
And, also, gotta love the icons. Giving Adobe a run for their money there.
Such design.

@andycarolan I don’t need all the things, but I’ll glad Pixelmator Pro isn’t dead. I use that tool often.

@CTD Yeah, it's an odd bundle. I guess for some it would make sense over buying individual apps.

@aral Yeah, it's not a great feeling at all.
I'm not here for all these subscriptions... it's wild.

@justincox Yeah, it's a popular app.
I wonder how many people would find value in all these apps in one sub... it's pretty diverse, but feels like an unnecessary money grab.

@andycarolan Big bag of nopes. To each their own but I got rid of Adobe for Affinity and Da Vinci Resolve and would never go back.

@andycarolan It’s not something I’ll be using let alone need.

Does the text output of your Fortran code look dull? Cheaply increase the value of your software and attract new users by restyling with these newfangled graphics primitives.
As seen on this Stanford CS Technical Report published in 1978.

@_elena did you guys see #Monnett promoted #WSocial (not even EuroSky) prior to it even launching (along with Xing and BeReal) as "European alternative/s"? Almost like they were some sort of (European) gang of private-owned companies.

I’m excited to be speaking at #FOSDEM about leading #change to #opensource alternatives. Are you interested in learning more on why change is as much about people and culture as it is about technology?
I’ll share my personal lessons from real-world transitions to #FOSS solutions, building resilient digital ecosystems, and helping teams adopt open source with confidence.
Cu there!
