minus-squareVitoRobles@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-215 days agoYeah, this is kinda BS. Adobe don’t care. Nearly every design firm is going to ask you about your Adobe experience, so you can use their Adobe software. Maybe some of their designers will use GIMP. But that’s like saying your office also uses libre office and Linux. Which is extremely rare.
