Inferior photo adjustment tools
British firm Serif has been in the media-creation-software space for over a decade. Its Affinity line, which started with Mac-only apps in 2015, even garnered an Apple Mac App of the Year award that year. The Affinity apps are also available for Windows, and the company is attempting to make inroads on Adobe s firm grip on the media and design software industry. Serif’s low, non-subscription pricing is no doubt a factor for some users. The latest version of this photo editing software adds hardware acceleration for improved performance on Windows, linked layers, astrophotography stacking, and custom interface presets. It’s feature-packed and powerful, but some operations are still slow and the user interface still lacks some friendliness found in competitors. Several of the program’s tools, too, fall short of Adobe s state-of-the-art software.
Yeah sorry had to put that one in the title, I thought it really summed up 2020 best.
So as every year you can read what someone did that year in the yearly overview, but this year I decided to break that semi tradition, for the simple reason like most of you guys (who did follow the rules) we have been in almost complete lockdown this year. Yes we did work of course (what was possible) but for the workshops it’s been the worst year you can imagine, where I normally teach twice a week, do events, seminars etc. we ended up this year with less the 10 workshops and 1 event, it’s been bad, really bad. But compared to probably most others we are incredibly blessed and lucky, so no complaints from our side, we are still here mostly healthy and our business didn’t take a huge hit thanks to Annewiek who actually could work most of the year with Tethertools and help me with the online parts.
