Adobe Tells Users They Can Get Sued for Using Old Versions of Photoshop

I was stunned by this revelation, but then I think back to all the other times Adobe has exhibited similar behaviour and it seems like they won't change. It's not like the CC suite is cheap either. To compare, Office 365 subscription provides so much more value for a better price.

For a very high-class replacement of Adobe products, I would recommend Affinity suite of products - they are a buy once, use forever kind. And Affinity Designer (replacement for Illustrator) is incredibly good - even better than Illustrator in a lot of areas. And price of Designer is less than 2 months of Illustrator fees. Beat that!

I think Affinity Photo is a great Photoshop alternative, but Designer is more geared to illustrators than actually designers.

The simple fact that working with groups is practically unusable in Designer is a major deal breaker for me. There have been feature requests in Affinity's forums for years to fix that which Affinity has ignored.
