canva fucking sucks.png < my literal screenshot filename. Anyway… Yeah, I wanted to make a circle with white fill. That’s it, I gotta PAY for that. wtf?
Why use Canva? What are you doing on this that can’t be done for free in other applications elsewhere?
Dunno about op, but at my work it’s used because of its ease to share and have several people work on the same file
It’s fine if your work pays for it. That’s why I have Spotify and Notion, for instance… Why would I pass on free stuff?
Why does your work pay for Spotify? Just a perk?
Yes, just a perk
Draw.io. Has its downsides but they are perfectly acceptable considering how bad everything else is.
What downsides?
It’s nit picking but compatibility is sometimes not guaranteed with certain asset packs/features that seem to be shipped by default across certain versions. It kind of comes with the whole “hey, when you view the thing please view it using this url” aspect which is fine generally but there are always those outlier situations. Like I said though. Total nit picking.
Visio is similar in that the lowest plan doesn’t let you use many of the built in shapes.
You can add them yourself as images but loads of useful shapes for a network diagram, for example, are missing making it very inconvenient to use (I’m now using draw.io).
I can understand limiting certain functionality (like only having a web UI) but not making basic tasks unnecessarily difficult.
Shit like this is why i still run office 2007.
Doesn’t windows still have paint?
You can no longer choose the shapes, AI hallucinates them for you. If they don’t fit your desired shape you can pay-per-side-polygon to have a fixed number of sided shape added. mS pAInt
So circles are a subscription as they have infinite sides?
You catch on too quickly.
“Yeah, makes sense. You know how hard it is to draw a perfect circle? How about you try it then, asshole? Didn’t think so. Now pay up!!”
- Canva sales team, probably
http://photopea.com/ has everything I need without any sign ups.
I mean, it’s free. For the longest time they were great. Though, It even looks like if you scroll to the right, you can make a circle just fine
Canva bought Affinity. The more I know about them, the more it stresses me out.
Inkscape.
figma works well for this
Ligma too - in response to the company charging for circles.
New Minecraft monetization just dropped.
Looks like you’re out of flags. Would you like to purchase 10 more for $2.99?
EDIT: My brain read Minesweeper. 😂 Oh well, I’m leaving it.
