• Thinking of switching from photoshop to affinity

  I switch in 2014 and never went back. The learning curve is something you need to be aware of and also the fact you need to buy other apps as well. For example I have these apps accompanying my Affinity suite: Hype4, Pixelmator and Art Text plus a free app that is a Figma alternative called Penpot. Why? Because these third apps would do what Affinity can’t. With all those apps, you won’t need Adobe to survive in... Source: 12 months ago

• I still use Flash in 2022

  Man I miss Flash too! Tumult Hype is the closest thing to it, but the editor's Mac only. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Are there things that Flash did that we still can’t do with today’s web?

  I keep hoping that we’ll be able to package Flash-grade animations as WASM and send them out as a single file (or as two files, one for a Haxe-like runtime and another for the game or animation). But since there is no real standard authoring tool (and nobody mentions those, or the ease of use the Flash “IDE” had) I don’t have much hope.

• Comment Notifications Without Comments

  I'm a long-time Ello member (@dickiesaul). Lately I notice many of my posts indicate a comment has been made, but I don't see any either with the post or on the notifications list. The ello.co site isn't much help with support questions. Anyone else seeing this? Source: almost 2 years ago

• Does anyone have any opinion or experience with the platform Ello?

  I'm talking about this platform. I heard about them a few years back when they started, but I think you needed an invite to be part of them. Now it seems you can make an account and share your work without invite. Source: about 2 years ago

• How to discover new art and follow artists you love when social media makes you sick?

  Many have suggested sites that are art focused. Let me add ello.co which I think woudl be a good fit for you. It is social media with an intense art focus.
