I remember when the choice was Adobe Photoshop or JASC PAINT PRO SHOP!!! My computer couldnt run adobe cause I had 12 gb total of pc power from my GATEWAY 2000.

whoops Jasc Paint shop pro?? anyway how you gonna have three names no wonder adobe won (and other stuff contributed or whstever 🙄) hahaha

Yes Paint Shop Pro, the besssssst 🥰 (Also I can relate, our computer was so slow with Dreamweaver, that’s the main reason I taught myself html and css back in the day)

YESSS i’m fully convinced I became technical from necessity because I had a computer late and it was GARBAGE (family is poor). I had to get create with how I allocated space and alternatives to programs mentioned in tutorials I followed

Damn, I kinda feel attacked and old with this post at the same time 🫠

lol. no attacking. I just had this realization seeing some of those companies just suddenly all over and the "defaults" in their respective spaces. tides shift!

Dribbble is more or less the same as it always was, just less cool? Webflow is crazy big and powerful
