I ran a catalog/advertising department for 5-1/2 years for a wholesale distributor. I lived in a spread sheet and in graphic software.
Quit using Adobe, had several version of Adobe Suite. I found I could do the same job I needed to do with GIMP and use only 1 app. No bridge thingie. (bridge = BLOAT)
Used ImageMagic for mass image processing. Did it daily as I made changes and added images. (47,000 items in warehouse)
Now, seldom need anything I don’t have in Linux. I have knobs screwed down pretty tight for web use.
I have been told repeatedly on this forum by very loud and rude posters that Mac’s don’t have security issues.
So this, and other recent stories, are false..... :-O
