Is there a legitimate replacement for Lightroom classic? I hate adobe and I want to stop renting it, but goddamn it makes editing so fresh and so good. I freely admit I am a retard and I don’t want to spend several hours investigating different softwares. I want to know what you guys use and / or if anyone who actually edits large amounts of photos uses anything other than photoshop and Lightroom

Darktable is better than lightroom and is for loonix No, it's not too complicated. Just watch a tutorial or two and stick to a few basic modules at first.

Capture one perpetual costs less than a kit zoom or shitty chinese primeDarktable is free if your time is worthless and you’re using meaningless cheap equipment to make nearly-monochrome cinematic bench/tree/corner building corner pics for instagram. Wouldn’t take it near anything more important. Not even a photo of the family dog. Wouldn’t use it with a nice camera either. What kind of retard buys a $1000+ camera but can’t afford a C1 forever license?

Which camera do you use? Most brands have a software solution for developing their RAWS on a computer.

Also for the record everyone I started with a pirated lrc but bought the actual software because the actual updated software works way better than the 2012 pirate version Yes, I have a job and can afford to buy nice things from time to time. Shocking, I know. Yes I’m a retarded normie, I know. I just was wondering if there is a modern version of Lightroom classic / ps that works at a similar level and can do the things I likeI’m talking about hdr landscape panoramas and focus stacking product photos. Color grading portraits. All of those things are EASY AS FUCK on lrc/ps. I have no experience with any other software. I’m looking for good competition to go to because adobe sucks. I know daVinci resolve took pr pro’s lunch. I was looking for that but for lrc/ps

Yes capture oneLightroom is horrible. The only thing capture one doesn’t do better is support for shitty canon lenses and older low end DSLR lenses.

The only not-LR alternative I liked was DxO Photolab and the latest version cracked is 9.2 (its at 9.9 now)

I use pirated LR on my tablet, great for trips. On my desktop I use darktable but its 5 million menus scares me.OP just pirate LR, if you're used to it it's not really worth learning another program.
