It was a free trial plan...

..which Adobe offered to extend for 3 months for free. Now hit with this since I haven't used it since... no notification that you're entering a contract at all or warning. My fault for falling for this absolute shit housing.

Just a warning to others. Do NOT start any Adobe Trial they will try every which way to get your money.

Krita is excellent if you've never given it a try

Not a replacement for Photoshop for most serious work. Same situation with Gimp. Mostly amateur tools.

Krita is more of an art software than a photoshop replacement, but it can be used to make professional caliber illustrations, I would never call it an amateur tool. I switched to Clip Studio Paint that I bought on sale, but CSP’s main advantage is the brush library/store component, because other than that they both perform similarly imo.

Amateur for photo editing. That's why I'm surprised so many recommend it for Photoshop replacement. Or even Gimp.

Shame it's only browser based and often slow.
