  • I have the whole suite of apps installed as a Flatpak. The Photoshop clone is the fastest one to implement features, but the whole suite is moving really fast. Looking at the commits and features shipped, I haven’t seen anything like this. It looks very well organized.

    I have been using Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign professionally for ~30 years. These Craft apps are freaking amazing, they open in the blink of an eye and open multi-gb files just as fast. Working with these big files is also instantaneous.

    I have done my own calculations, and what they say is true, the Suite will reach beta status by mid-late October depending on the app. But the suite in general will be ready with more features than what a basic-intermediate user would want.

    I think what will make or break the Suite is if they go with local AI or not for Neural filters and generative fill. The community might turn on them if they don’t.

    But technically speaking It’s truly an amazing feat.

    These are my own projections, so it’s not official:

    Repo Ready today Hours to beta Beta (central) Range
    vectorcraft 62% 170–270 Oct 13 Oct 12–15
    lightcraft 61% 340–600 Oct 15 Oct 13–19
    photocraft 45% 1,100–1,800 Oct 22 Oct 17–31
    effectcraft 45% 350–620 Oct 22 Oct 17 – Nov 1
    filmcraft 56% 400–700 Oct 22 Oct 17 – Nov 1
    printcraft 49% 400–700 Oct 22 Oct 16–31
    designcraft 47% 435–775 Nov 26 Nov 3 – Jan 4

    Both the Linux Foundation and the EFF have permissive policies towards AI generated code, even Linus Torvalds accepts it as a tool.

    Some FOSS projects that have AI generated code in it:

    • The Linux kernel
    • Fedora
    • Mesa 3D
    • Jellyfin
    • Firefox
    • Chromium
    • Homebrew
    • OpenSSL
    • FFmpeg
    • Curl

    Should we ban them all? If so, this community would be either dead soon OR it would be hypocritical.

    Or because they started pre-AI it’s ok now? Shouldn’t we care more about disclosure, policies, licensing, code quality and maintainability?

    Users should downvote crappy software and crappy devs, regardless of the tool it was written with.
