Ulysses becomes a subscription-based app
A vivid discussion sprang up on the internet three days ago when The Soulmen, developers of Ulysses, announced that their popular text editor for macOS and iOS had become a subscription-based app. This rather unanticipated step has rendered the group of Ulysses fans bipolar. Subscription lovers claim that the application is much more affordable via a low monthly fee than a big payment upfront, while their opponents argue that it practically forces them to pay for the software in perpetuity, in order to be able to preserve its functionality. As always in similar cases, the truth lies somewhere in the middle and both sides have some valid points in the discussion.

The market of writing software is full of powerful, innovative or intuitive text editors and word processors that have been widely used by a large public for several years.

Moving from Photoshop to Affinity Photo
I’ve recently made one of the biggest changes in my workflow as a photographer: I’ve switched from Adobe Photoshop CC to Affinity Photo software for post-processing and retouching my images. This change was not easy to make. I’ve been using Photoshop in a professional way for several years now, I’ve become familiar with its possibilities and the way its functions work. However, I’m unsatisfied with the way Adobe Photoshop develops: each new iteration brings less innovations and improvements, at least in the field in which I’m using this software. Also, I’m a big opponent of subscription-based applications. While it might be an optimal solution for one to pay low monthly fee for a software he/she uses, sooner or later one reaches the point when accumulated cost of the subscription is higher than the retail price of a stand-alone software license. I reached that point and wondered: “Do I really need to pay monthly for Photoshop, while there are other solutions just as functional?” None of Photoshop updates in the last two years have been really useful for me, tools and modules I use work in the same way and as effective as they used to few years ago. Therefore I made a decision: it’s time for a change. Let’s try something new, let’s find some Photoshop replacement.
