Adobe on Mac (2025)
I'm coming to the end of a CC subscription and since recently being back on the high seas I've thought about some "alternatives".
Because, fuck Adobe.
The options appear to be alot more plentiful for my Windows shipmates, but I'm wondering if anyone has some recent experience doing this for Mac? Via here and the megathread I've been looking through r/adobezii, monter and monkrus; are these still the best options? Nothing seems as concrete as GenP for the windows users, so I think I've answered that for myself: they are the only options.
But equally I'm not finding much in terms of guides. I think I can do a test on a VM of this, but of course I still have CC running currently.
Anyway, hoping to hear if anyone has any experience/knowledge of doing this recently
I just did this recently with my MacBook (I downloaded Adobe Acrobat) but I got the torrent files from nmac.to (it's in the megathread) and it's worked well for me so far!
Nice, I suppose Acrobat alone is more straightforward than Photoshop and AfterEffects etc?
How did it work for Acrobat, is there a crack with the file or are you blocking communication between it and Adobe CC?
did you download just Acrobat?
I've been using Affinity products as well as Photomator. Let's see what Apple does with that App. But I hope they give us who bought it a free upgrade or at least a steep discount.
same over here. curious what you end up doing.
I'm uninstalling everything Adobe left behind and it feels amazing with Affinity on the scene. Let's be real with OpenArt being able to be fed datasets and produce visuals from words, it's only a matter of time until entire documents are dictated and documented by AI. The days of hand making visuals on the day to day is coming to an end. We will still need human tweaking and understanding but I'd suggest sinking your time into learning to code and understanding basics. Recraft can also pup out solid vectors that can be brought into Affinity and tweaked.
I want to download premier pro crack on my Mac 15.1 can anyone tell me how to download it I am new on Mac I have tried several dmg files but whenever I drag them to the terminal and fill the password the terminal window disappears with a sound effect and nothing much happens
yeah how do we get adobe now? i got some on cmacked before but now its not working. where can we get cracked adobe. I especially need acrobat or an alternate pdf editor
It’s not pirating, but I have been using Photomator and it takes a little getting used to, but the potential is really there especially after being bought by Apple.
Yeah I remember looking into them when the acquisition was announced. Definitely promising as you say.
It'll hopefully be a good Lightroom replacement long term, Final Cut's update also looks good so maybe a Premiere replacement there. As with alot of people, After Effects is the most difficult to replace.
