Adobe is a predatory company whose sole goal is to bleed you dry over your lifetime by locking entire industries into their shitty ecosystem.

Gonna drop some alternatives I use that you can get either for free or one-time payments: https://twitter.com/MRDADDGUY/status/1381628427246039045

Photoshop/Illustrator:

@affinitybyserif's Photo and Designer have never made me miss Adobe's apps. They're both on sale for $25 each right now. https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/

Affinity Designer – Professional Graphic Design Software

Available for Windows, Mac and iPad, Affinity Designer is an award-winning vector graphics software setting the new industry standard in the world of design.

Premiere Pro/After Effects:

DaVinci Resolve's base edition is free and will cover pretty much anything your average content creator would need to edit YouTube/Twitch stuff. AND THEIR LEARNING MATERIAL IS ALL FREE.

Audition:

Audition is a joke an literally any DAW does everything better. Reaper is $60, but the demo is unlimited forever if you're poor. The UI/UX experience will probably radicalize you into becoming a Unabomber, but it's incredibly powerful.

2D/3D Animation:

What Blender's been doing lately for complete free is absolutely mind blowing and anyone telling you it's not a serious competitor to 2D/3D apps that cost thousands of dollars is just being a stupid boomer. https://www.blender.org/
