Photoshop Alternatives for Mac

It is probably the closest alternative to Adobe Photoshop, at least from those I know. For me personally too complicated but if you know how to use it, you can do many things you can do with Photoshop too. What I also noticed is that it loads very quickly on Linux.

Free, rich of feature, good performance, many tutorial, anything it's lack can be cover with plug-in. The best for free software.

Bad user interface, difficult to learn, unintuitive, slow. Thank God for Photopea.

gimp 3.0 will be more better hope so

Irritating, totally unintuitive, completely unthought-out interface. It may have a lot of possibilities, but a lifetime is not enough to discover them and understand the twisted logic of this program.

Not similar, missing lots of important functionality. STOP PROMOTING IT AS A PHOTOSHOP ALTERNATIVE!

Versatile editing and drawing application, FOSS, great for an average user.

Nothing else comes closer for this price range.

I believe, now that it supports Windows, that it's a great alternative to Photoshop. There's a wide variety of features you can find both on Photoshop and Photo, they share most of the key features. Affinity's design is beautiful aswell.

This was my go to image editor for a while when I was using Windows. There's no Linux support however, which is disappointing.

Not all but very close on features, certainly all the most important. Price model absolutely better. Pay once and use it until new version.

Essentially the same functions without any subscription and at a very reasonable price.

It's a shame it doesn't support Linux. I sometimes use Krita and Gimp, but after seeing what Affinity Photo can do, how polished it is, I would buy it instantly if it ran on Linux. :/

It's not as full-featured as Photoshop, but it does a lot of things that PS can do. If you don't need every single feature of PS or can't afford the monthly subscription, it's a very good alternative.

I like Krita as an alternative to Photoshop because it's open source and free from the tyranny of Adobe Subscriptions

It's kinda more intuitive to use than GIMP (which is a briliant PS alternative too) interface-wise, and supports CMYK out of the box if one needs it. As of version 3.1 it has pretty advanced support for animation, including opacity curves (GIMP fails completely in that field, animathing anything is a major PITA in it)

Krita is for painting, not photo editing

It works with legacy graphics card, it's intuitive, it has super transform tools

It's free, yet has almost all the features Photoshop has

best open source raster program out there in terms of digital paintings goes, and in some areas even better than Photoshop.

For artists using photoshop it is the best alternative.

For the simple editing I do to get photos ready for email and web, Pixelmator is perfect. It can crop (including constrained cropping), resize, and do all the essential color/brightness/contrast/levels tweaks. And the best feature of all, it has a magical healing brush for removing blemishes.

Considering Photoshop is a ripoff with the subscription crap and Elements is totally unsupported by Adobe and it's a piece of crap, Pixelmator offers a clean interface, powerful tools and it actually works. #adobesucks

Can accomplish nearly all of the functions of Photoshop, while still being cheaper, and more stable

Very intuitive UI for Effects. Impressed with how to apply them on an image, and how to turn a plain image to a professional edited image!

If you're looking for a painting app, MyPaint may be a good alternative to Photoshop. It has infinite canvas, good, natural brushes and overall good tools.

MyPaint is only a drawing program, but it can't edit images. Adobe Photoshop can do both.

My paint is not a image editor

MyPaint is a program for digital art. Though GIMP can be used for that purpose, GIMP is also an image editing software.

mypaint is really only for drawing, it's not an image editor

Corel Photo-paint and CorelDraw work very well with Corel Painter and Paint-shop Pro. Pretty much everything is covered, there [High-end full-body textile design must be around the corner.] Everlasting licences also make CorelDraw the clear Winner.

Simple, no layers, but brushes are available. Cheap, light weighted and goes easy on your machine resources. Even as professional I do use Photoscape for a first review of my photos.

Good For newbie before u learn Photoshop, use this Software First :)

I like it because you can merge multiple photos easily.

Far better than photoshop for digital painting

It has pretty similar tools and the results look just as good as in PS

Clip Studio Paint has the best blending tools I've seen so far

I couldn't find an option for layers.

Free version is the most capable offline editor available in Chromebook. Excellent masking tools in paid version.
