        Thanks. I use GIMP a lot for small things but without proper non-destructive editing it will never be a serious alternative to Photoshop, unfortunately. Also I rarely use Photoshop, mostly Lightroom.

            Hatte nicht gesehen in welcher Community ich bin und der Artikel war auf Englisch ;)

            Die Alternativen sind leider nicht mal ansatzweise gleichwertig. Ich nutze sehr viel Lightroom und möchte darauf nicht verzichten. Darktable kann auch viel, ist aber insbesondere im Hinblick auf Usability einfach deutlich schlechter. Und hab keine Lust immer mit Dual Boot zu hantieren, das ist einfach zu nervig.

        Sorry but I can’t watch that video for more than a few seconds, what a horrible way to try and get a point across.

        There is no good alternative to Lightroom for me so I’ll stick with it for now. May well be different for video software.

        Do you have a guide for that? Just some pirated copy with wine? Or is there something more difficult involved?

          I used the m0nkrus versions, installed them on Windows (because his installer doesn’t work in wine) and copied these folders into my wineprefix:

          C:\Program Files\Adobe
          C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe
          C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe
          C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe
          C:\ProgramData\Adobe
          C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Local\Adobe
          C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\Adobe
          

          Then I used winetricks to install these dependencies: winetricks vcrun2022 vkd3d dxvk atmlib corefonts gdiplus allfonts fontsmooth=rgb

          If it crashes often, disable GPU acceleration in the settings. Photoshop just works, but Illustrator needs a patch applied to wine, otherwise the GUI has major graphical errors and you also need to add a DLL override for msxml3.dll and set it to “native, builtin”.

          Illustrator also needs these files copied and renamed in its own directory:

          icuin73.dll => icuin.dll
          icuuc73.dll => icuuc.dll
          

          According to this result, Photoshop CC 2023 seems to run now, too.
