yeah, i didn't realize pro was sub, dang. i think i bought it on my old mba, but i use the regular pixelmator more on my ipad and my desktop is windows so it was kind of a wasted purchase when i switched to affinity. they still maintain the ios pixelmator but it's more feature compatibility with their other apps than feature additions

nah im just mixing up their products. it looks like "pixelmator" and "pixelmator pro" are still one-time price, but "pixelmator photo" is the one that switched to subscription, although I think they did grandfather in existing owners of the product.

Beeftweeter posted:also probably. i think pixelmator photo was like $2.99 when i bought it because it had just been released oh, yeah, if that's the case for photo i'm also grandfathered in. as much as i like it i probably wouldn't sub because apple's own tweaking ui is fine for quick snaps this whole thing reminded me i still have a lightroom sub for when i used to do some side work. i gotta do some cleaning edit: photo does use icloud for syncing, which is really handy and cuts out the whole adobe cloud trap lightroom has. it made it easy to access modified photos on any of my devices without the app edit edit: and photo has simplified ML tools like scaling, noise removal, and color matching. it's not topaz-level tweakable, but they seem to update and refine the models so it's still getting features for the price Agile Vector fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Jan 4, 2023 |

lol that googles abandonware is better than their actively developed photo app, probably because nobody can get promoted for adding features to snapseed anymore

I want to say cutting functionality, or discontinuing it after breaking a workflow
