Toon Boom’s domination really is very regional. But that’s one reason I list flash as having competitors.

In Canada, you’ll find a lot of the larger shops use toon boom and the smaller shops use Flash/Animate.

When you move out to Asia, the balance changes quite a bit the other way but you also see a lot more players in the form of OpenToonz etc entering. Especially on the anime front.

god it's like there's actual multiple viable options, is that even legal any more. My animation friends are all in the LA scene; they all started out in Flash cartoons in the 00s and some of 'em kept on using it for a pretty long time but it seems to have pretty much vanished.

I really gotta make some time to grind on tutorials for Toon Boom or this copy of Moho 14 I have on my computer and see if I actually want to animate again once I get over the hump of "how does this giant toolkit even work".
