    Illustrator → Inkscape

    Lightroom → Darktable/CaptureOne/Rawtherapee

    They may need some getting used to if you come from adobe, but they are all very capable.

      Inkscape doesn’t support typeface tracking which is a problem for me. I use Affinity Designer, which isn’t free, but also isn’t a subscription model.

        Affinity generally is the closest you get to a proper publishing workflow,imho.

        I absolutely love it. And their pricing is more than fair.

        Damn, I’ve been eyeing the Affinity suite for quite a while, but I still couldn’t bring myself to buy it, because they don’t have a Linux version. I do have a Windows on my computer, but it’s only for Rocksmith basically. And I don’t even remember the last time I used it. I don’t wanna buy anything for Windows anymore.

        For now I have to stick to Inkscape, which is amazing in functionality, but I wish it would crash less often when I’m handling large files.

        I can see how that might be a deal breaker for some applications. Good to know that there are alternatives around!
