Someone just shared with me #Apple's new creative suite service, #CreatorStudio. I'm not going to consider it for obvious reasons. And you shouldn't either!

Even if it ends up being a quality suite, DO NOT USE IT. It's a trap! There are free apps that do the exact same thing as these creative suites. They only exist to get you comfortable enough in them that you feel an intense sense of sunk cost in your familiarity so you can never stop paying for the service.

I do not care that the price looks better than #Adobe's #CreativeCloud. It's still 100% more than you should ever have to spend on software. Especially when I know for a fact that it WILL enshittify.
That is, if it hasn't *already* been an "agentic app" with "AI" shoved up every orifice, which you have to work around just to do any work!

IT'S A SCAM.
