As an Illustrator, I can’t use OpenCanvas 7 anymore.   Two years. That’s almost how long it has been since OpenCanvas 7 received an update.   The last update it got was on October 15th, 2019. That is insane. No software should be going that long without an update. And it’s a program that desperately needs features and bug fixes to keep up with its much more well-equipped competition.   I have been dealing with the same bugs, if not more since I made my review on OpenCanvas 7 three years ago.   Workspaces not working correctly, one time a file got corrupted and I lost all of my work on a commission, and constant crashing and freezing within the program.

Truly a shadow of its former self.    Oh, Evernote.   When I first used you back in 2014, you were one of the best things to ever happen to me. You changed the way I took notes forever and made me far more organised than any other app I used. Really, you were in a league of your own.   But now, your main purpose is to squeeze money out of its consumers, especially its free/basic users. You have become nothing more than an abusive relationship that I can’t get out of and you know how beneficial and important you are.   More importantly, you know well enough that your average user may pay you a little extra once they’re put in the right situation that you devised.     Swindling you into a Premium subscription.   Sixty megabytes (60MB).   That is your monthly upload limit for the…
