• Cancel Adobe if you are a creative under NDA with your clients

  Well, there is Serif's suite: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/ (There's also a Photo and page layout app) or the open-source stuff: - https://krita.org/en/ - https://inkscape.org/ - https://www.scribus.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 9 hours ago

• Cancel Adobe if you are a creative under NDA with your clients

  These are all valid alternatives with real world use, but none of them are Photoshop, and that's kinda the problem we face. Krita - https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / about 9 hours ago

• Photoshop ToS grants Adobe access to user projects for 'content moderation'

  I migrated away from Adobe after Photoshop CS6 which I believe was the last release before they switched over to a subscription only pricing model. If you're looking for a Photoshop alternative to break away from the incredibly user hostile relationship with Adobe I can heartily recommend either Krita (open source) or Pixelmator (Mac only). Pixelmator Pro is my daily driver for image related work and is incredibly... - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• Paint.net

  Check out Krita[0]. It's what I used after leaving Windows - a little different, maybe 25% more complicated, but has everything you need. If you just want a MS Paint replacement, KolourPaint[1] is the way to go [0] https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?

  The entire KDE project, which not only includes the Plasma Shell but also Projects like Krita [0] and Kdenlive [1] and some other great applications that work cross platform. [0] https://krita.org/en/ [1] https://kdenlive.org/de/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Sharpening an unfocused Pic

  If it's badly out of focus you can use a specialized deblur tool like smartdeblur. The website looks dated but the program is actually amazing, scroll down to the out-of-focus examples. http://smartdeblur.net/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Unredacter: Never ever use pixelation as a redaction technique

  There are tools that can "correct" both Gaussian and motion blur, as an example a car plate from low resolution video stills, example (commercial): http://smartdeblur.net/ before the above the author made a version which was free (but old link is now dead): https://github.com/Y-Vladimir/SmartDeblur/downloads. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• How to enhance image or video quality to see car plate?

  The biggest problem is when the plate is blurry. Then you can use specialized programs like FocusMagic or SmartDeblur. The second one is like magic sometimes but needs just the right settings via trial and error. Mindblowing examples: http://yuzhikov.com/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Tell HN: Zelensky is blurring -not blanking- sensitive documents in a video

  Smart Deblur[1] is probably one of the best publicly available tools for debluring images like this. It supports a wide array of blur algorithms. I've used it to reverse passwords and identifying details released by security researchers. I was unable to retrieve anything of value from the blurred areas of this image.

• Is Gaussian blur an invertible transformation?

  However, I recently found software that could do it. And also a discussion about doing the inverse convolution . Source: over 2 years ago
