Counterpoint to people saying that they need AI to be able to create art.

Anyone who has been following me for a while will have noticed that there was a phase where I didn't feel like doing anything with art anymore because of all the AI crap that takes away the fun.
Well, that phase was relatively short, and the reason for that is @pixel, who talked to me about it very intensively and convinced me to continue making art!
End of story, I'm into it again and publishing a lot.
As a small thank you to @pixel, I made a little fan art of pixeldesus character Poly (but there's more to come soon ;D).

Fun fact about this image: This is text art (XBIN/ANSI), and the entire artwork can theoretically be executed via a terminal.

And now the most important thing:
If you're an Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma or similar program user, what are the most important features that even the most basic app needs for you to consider trying it?

Q: Do you have any experience in creating something similar?
I have created a very barebones vector graphics editor in the past. While I probably will not use almost any of it's cod,e it proved to me that this is possible and it also showed me what not to do and how to do everything better.

Death in Front of the Tavern.
Alfred Rethel, from "Alfred Rethel; 16 Zeichnungen und Entwürfe" by Walther Friedrich, Mainz: 1907 #illustration #art https://www.oldbookillustrations.com/illustrations/death-tavern/
Hello artists of fediverse!
It's probably not a wild thing to say that we all hate Adobe and similar giant companies that make art software that:
1. Doesn't work on linux,
2. Could probably disappear tomorrow without any warning, taking all our projects with it and
3. Requires expensive subscriptions
I want to try and combat that by creating an alternative open source suite of tools!
I'm so tired. People, I am not interested in reading *blogs* generated with claude, gemini or chatgpt. No, not even ones proofread by AI. Do it yourself. I do not wish to even accidentally click on "one-shotted" dummy projects. Don't show me your AI-generated analysis of anything. Above all, I do not wish to see images/artwork someone prompt created.
I value real content, with all its good and bad quirks, from actual human beings.
Somebody please normalize auto-tagging of AI generated content across all formats - text, images and code so I can blanket ban them from my personal computer.
This is a plead for help I never thought I'll have to make.
