• Adobe users are outraged over vague new policy's AI implications

  You may want to edit your list to remove Figma since the Adobe acquisition is no longer happening :) And perhaps a combination of https://cavalry.scenegroup.co and https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/fusion could be After Effects alternatives. I haven't made the switch yet due to the number of AE plugins I own, but perhaps this most recent Adobe gaffe will do it for me. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• 36 Days of Type — C (Cavalry)

  Https://cavalry.scenegroup.co/ (according to OP). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Experiment #1

  Ive used Cavalry, a new (mostly free) 2D animation app. Combined with VOID, a new (free demo) visual software. Source: almost 2 years ago

• After Effects getting progressively slower

  Really depends on your workflow, but Im currently using Motion for 2D animation/"animated graphics design", managed to set up all my common lower thirds and transitions to Fusion templates in Resolve. I hear good things about apps like Cavalry(https://cavalry.scenegroup.co/ ), though it has a paid subscription tier so it's not that much of a win in a professional setting.

• Has the Houdini family been playing with Cavalry?

  I've dreamt of a "Houdini for 2D." This new program Cavalry seems to be addressing that market. Like a more procedural After Effects. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Experimental and obscure graphic design tools?

  If you want to try out some 2d motion graphics that isn’t After Effects you should check out Cavalry — Bit of a learning curve but it can do some powerful stuff. Free to download for most features in it too. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is there any way to automate renders taking data from websites?

  Templater would be best, I think, combined with other plugins and workarounds? But there might be a different approach, for example using Cavalary app, instead of After Effects. This way you could import Google Sheets into your animation? Source: about 2 years ago

• I made an animation in PowerPoint... Help

  Maybe check out Cavalry. They have a free model. I haven’t dove into too much myself but I’ve seen some great work come out of it. https://cavalry.scenegroup.co. Source: about 2 years ago

• To switch or not to switch?

  After Effects is a more difficult one. It is the lone industry standard. If you need to exchange project files with anyone else, you need After Effects. Calvary is a more affordable subscription if you need more graphics power than Resolve. Apple Motion is $49 one-time, but you're on a PC. Source: about 2 years ago

• Where do I even start to make some thinking like this?

  Also worth a look https://cavalry.scenegroup.co cavalry is like Houdini for 2D (ive heard it called twodini). Source: about 2 years ago

• I created a phone holder for NYC citibikes

  For purely 2D animation and motion graphics though, I'd maybe look at Cavalry as an interesting non-Adobe alternative. Source: about 2 years ago
