You can purchase their photoshop, illustrator and indesign alternatives for $169. I know, not free, and they're desktop-only.
Adobe Express is free and similar to Canva as a layout maker.
GIMP is a free photoshop alternative, but it's desktop-only. gimp.org

FINAL CUT PRO:
Let me be clear. Premier has always been garbage—today as a buggy mess and back when FCP originally launched and ate its lunch. It's only advantage is the Adobe ecosystem (which is a big advantage). FCP is fast, gets out of your way, hardly crashes, and, if it does, you never lose your work. I've been using it over a decade. I paid $300 for it, ONCE, and have received updates ever since.
DAVINCI RESOLVE:
The multi-platform king. Personally, I don't like the NLE built into DaVinci, but I haven't invested much time in getting familiar with it either. DaVinci is the THE standard in color grading and it has an entire Adobe ecosystem replacement in one app (color, sound, sfx, cutting, finishing). It is FREE to use and only paywalls 4K exports and its more advanced plugins. If you want to learn video post-production, start here. When you're ready to level up: $295

Everything in your life does not have to be subscription based, and subscription does not equate a service being good. If I’m paying $24.99 a month to watch Netflix in 4K UHD, I should expect to see what I pay for, not subpar playback latency, low bitrate streams, many app crashes, and overall looking terrible on anything that isn’t a 4K display.
Remember when you could buy things and own them, like, forever?
There is a better world out there past Netflix, Hulu, Spotify and Amazon Prime.

You don’t have to tell everyone everything in/about your life, especially online, in today’s online yet frequently data-breached world. Like the great Christopher Wallace once said: Keep your family and business completely separated

I have a near-Biblical dislike of Allbirds shoes and every other Tim Cook Jeff Bezos Middle-aged Balding Pickleball coach ass shoe out there for convincing the public that these were in any way cool. No dude, you look like a loser with these. They look bland and lifeless, like they were concocted in the same boardroom that made the flat graphic design trend that Meta and Google love so much. Hell, even notorious ip-infringer Skechers makes better looking shoes than these. They don’t even feel good to wear. They have no soul or personality and yet some people swear by them. Who are these shoes for?
