This is my list, thanks for sharing! It started out as a list for ASCII and textmode art editors but grew to include all kinds of alternative design tools. I've hosted two workshops where the assigment is to create a printed zine without the use of any Adobe software. I give this list to the participants to explore. The scans of these zines and more info can be found here: https://tekstien-marginaalien-keskus.aalto.f…

One of the.big hurdles is pantone support. At some point most places want their design to hit the real world and pantone has that market cornered. I dont just mean the technical parts pantone has expensive licensing that most FOSS doesnt and wont ever pay. There is more than one toll troll.in that marker.
There is no Pantone Support in Adobe Software since 2022/2023.
