“The art and design communities, in particular, are feeling the pinch from Adobe Suite going towards a rental model, and now the artist and perennial thorn in the side of anyone who seeks to own a colour, [Stuart Semple] is doing something about it. He’s launching a competing suite called provocatively, Abode, which will follow an affordable paid-for licence model.”
The Abode project seems overly optimistic in terms of scope, cost and timing to me but then I’ve never been involved in software development. Still, alternatives to the big names are always nice.
In the highly unlikely scenario that this Kickstarter actually eventuates in something even remotely approaching the quality and functionality of the Adobe suite I’ll buy it then. Until then, this is not even worth the time I’ve spent writing this comment thinking about.
Just a reminder that most Kickstarters make bold claims like this and don’t follow though at all. This guy couldn’t even come up with a unique name and logo for his scam.
